Difference between icecaps tech file and QRC Techgen tech file

Hello there,

I encounter some problems on the tech file as I try to generate the ice (equivalent capacitance) in voltagestorm. Previously, I try to use QRC Techgen to generate the RC tech file. However, this QRC Techgen tech file is not acceptable when I utilize it to generate ice in voltagestorm. I have looked at the manuals and it says that the tech file should be icecaps tech file rather than Techgen tech file. 

Does someone have the idea how to generate the icecaps tech file from ict file and its detailed procedure? I missed the important chapter in the voltagestorm data prepare manual.

My voltagestorm is 6.2.2a version and its required icecaps tech file should be the same.

Thanks for any help in advance.

    Hello Kari

    Thanks for your kind and quick response. I am trying to use Ice & Fire QX to generate the Ice and Fire (Equilvalent Resistance and Capacitance) and Ice & Fire QX requires the tech file.

    Previoulsy, I follow the Techgen procedure and use 

    Shell> Techgen -cell 

    to generate the tech file successfully. However, when I use this tech file in Ice & Fire QX, this type of tech file is not acceptable. I am wondering if somebody has the experience in using Ice & Fire QX.

    Thanks for your help and patience.

    Best Regards
