D Flip-Flop with asynchronous reset characterization using Cadence Liberate

farhan89

Hi ,
 
I am developing standard-library for technoloyg with few cells: NAND, NOR, NOT, LATCH, D Flip-Flop and D Flip-Flop with asynchronous reset. I am able to synthesize all cells except for the D Flip-Flop with asynchronous reset. I have simulated the design using spectre simulation and the functionality is correct.
I see no errors during the synthesis flow only some warning regarding the undefined templates for constraints. 
My cell definition is as follows:
if {[ALAPI_active_cell "DFFNRX1"]} {
define_cell \
-clock { CP } \
-async { RST_N } \
-input { D } \
-output { Q Q_bar } \
-pinlist { CP D Q Q_bar RST_N } \
-delay delay_3x3 \
-power power_3x3 \
DFFNRX1

}
 
At the end of characterization, tool shows the warning:
*Warning* (write_verilog) : No function written for pin Q of cell DFFNRX1
*Warning* (write_verilog) : No function written for pin Q_bar of cell DFFNRX1
also in the .lib file I don't see the function for the Q and Q_bar. Could anyone help me?
Thanks
