Doubt regarding import gds in encounter

selvam27

 Is there any option to import standard cell gds in encounter? I tried to include the standard cell gds in .conf file as follows.

 set rda_Input(ui_gds_file) "/export/projects/pnr_calibration/inputs/tcbn40lpbwp.gds"

But it shows error like,

Loading GDS File ./inputs/tcbn40lpbwp.gds
**ERROR: (ENCSYT-16029):    Failed to load gds file ./inputs/tcbn40lpbwp.gds.

 

If anybody knows how to resolve this problem, kindly reply me. Thanks in advance.

  • Encounter no longer reads in GDS directly. You need to convert the LEF and GDS to OpenAccess (OA) and then read in the OA libs.

    To create the OA library from LEF and GDS, use the following commands:

         lef2oa -lib testLib -lef lefFile -libPath ./testLib -DMSystem oaDMFileSys

         strm2oa -lib testLib -gds gdsFile -layerMap layer.map

    In EDI 10.1 and earlier versions specify the following in the config file to specify the OA library and views to load:

    set rda_Input(ui_oa_reflib) {testLib}
    set rda_Input(ui_oa_abstractname) {abstract}
    set rda_Input(ui_oa_layoutname) {layout}

    See this solution for more details:
