ASSURA RCX FAILS

Hello,

This is kind of urgent. I am using IC615 with LFoundry. After successfully running DRC and LVS, RCX fails with the following error. I don't know how to upload any file so I am pasting here.

/usr/local/cadence/installs/ASSURA41/tools/assura/bin/32bit/assura: /usr/local/cadence/installs/ASSURA41/tools/lib/SuSE/libelf.so.1: no version information available (required by /usr/local/cadence/installs/ASSURA41/tools/assura/bin/32bit/assura)

    Hi Sana,

    Without being able to see the netlist and model files, I don't think I can really diagnose the error - so you need to either contact customer support or contact L-foundry. It's possible there's something wrong with the model files or how the devices are being extracted.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew
