CDL out using SKILL

roopakvasa

Hi all,

I wish to CDL out few schematics.  So in order to automate the same I found following commands for log file.

1) to open schematics:

ddsServOpen("smphLib" "IN22FDX_SMP_BRG_W08192B072M08C128" "schematic" "read" nil

2) to gen generate netlist
\a gen_spectre_netlist()

So to automate i entered following into CIW which didnt work.

"

ddsServOpen("smphLib" "IN22FDX_SMP_BRG_W08192B072M08C128" "schematic" "read" nil
\a gen_spectre_netlist()
ddsServOpen("smphLib" "IN22FDX_SMP_BRG_W00128B072M08C128" "schematic" "read" nil
\a gen_spectre_netlist()
ddsServOpen("smphLib" "IN22FDX_SMP_BRG_W08192B016M08C128" "schematic" "read" nil
\a gen_spectre_netlist()
ddsServOpen("smphLib" "IN22FDX_SMP_BRG_W08192B072M08C128" "schematic" "read" nil
\a gen_spectre_netlist()

"

Any help on what is wrong with with above commands enter in CIW ?

Thanks,

Roopak 

  • Roopak,

    Well, gen_spectre_netlist is not a Cadence function - it must be some local customisation. Because of that, I can't really tell you what is and isn't working. You appear to be using a slightly odd choice of function to open the schematic, but why the gen_spectre_netlist function isn't working (given that I don't have the code, nor did you actually say what didn't work) is almost impossible to state. You wouldn't enter the \a in the CIW either - this is a tag in the CDS.log file for categorising the line, not something you would ever enter.

    Also, you're asking about CDL netlisting, yet this function is (presumably) for creating a spectre netlist rather than a CDL netlist (which is different).

    So your question is rather confusing...

    Regards,

    Andrew.
