Installing TSMC libraries in Cadence IC 6.1.3

archive

 Hi,

 

I have recently downloaded and unzipped a set of TSMC standard cell libraries.

The extracted libraries appears to be in the .db and .lib format. Is this a format than can be directly used by the IC 6.1.3 or needs some short of convertion (using Vulcan or Skill scripts)

 

Best Regards

  •  Hi Tom,

     

    I did manage to create abstract,functional (verilog) and symbol views for my standard cell library by using the import function in the CIW window

     When trying to generate a netlist (using spectre) of cells contaning the functional views I am getting the following error message :

     Netlist Error: Cannot find any info on instance "I3" in cell-view "tcbn65lp_140" "DFD4" "functional"
    Netlist Error: Some cell-views used inside this block could not be netlisted in analog context

     

    I have also added the 'functional' view into the ADE evironment options

     

    Could you please advice me on the above issue

    Many Thanks

     

    Best Regards
