How to import layout from Virtosuo to Encounter

Greatrebel

Hi All,

We are designing a chip which includes a mixed signal macro. I have the GDS for the MS macro. I am wondering how I can import the layout of the MS macro into our design in Encounter. I load into the gds file during design import, but nothing happens.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

     Hi,

     The normal flow is to represent your MS macro with a LEF (for the physical data) and a .lib (for the timing data).
