Hello. How to add a custom cell to the freePDK45nm standard cell library.

Hello,

I am going to do a custom designed - register file structure in freePDK45nm library. I want to add this as a single "cell" to the freePDK45nm standard cell library so that I can use this cell for doing a microprocessor design.

CAn someone tell me how to add an extra cell to the standard cell library? do I have to use the abstract view in virtuoso or something like that???

Thanks in advance

    Hi Thommandram,

    For adding a custom cell to standard library, you need:

    1) Schematic view + SignalStorm => temporal information

    2) Layout view + Abstract Generator => physical information

    Regards.
