Encounter does not stream out all cells into a GDS

archive

Hello all, I used First Encounter v4.1 for place and route, and using following command, a GDS format of the design was made: streamOut ~/WiMax576_0.7.gds -mapFile ~/gds2_cmos90.map -libName WiMax576 -structureName decoder576 -stripes 1 -units 1000 -mode ALL now, in Cadence Virtuoso, all standard cells are appearing like red boxes, and Calibre-DRC stops reading the GDS by following error: ERROR: Cell FILLERCELL32 is referenced but not defined. *** Calibre finished with Exit Code: 4 *** Can someone help me please to resolve the error? Thanks, Ali

  • Ali,

    How do you stream in to Virtuoso?

    If you use the GUI, then make sure you click on the Options, and turn on Retain Reference Library (No Merge). I know it sounds counter-intuitive, but give it a shot.

    If you use a set of keys and the command line (pipo strmin si_keys), then make sure refLib in si_keys is set to t.

    Let us know how it works - there is another thing we can try if it doesn't.
