 21 Jul 2006 13:51 how to get standard cell library in icfb |
|
|
|
|
| How can we get standard cell library in library manager (icfb), directly including the library path in the library manager doesnt help. We shuld be able to see the cells with different cellviews like layout, symbol etc. how can we do that?

you can define as below in the cds.lib file in the directory you start up the icfb.
DEFINE <libname> <libpath/libname>
example:
DEFINE stdcell_lib /xxx/xxx/stdcell_lib

hello asping
Standard cell library directory has sub-directories for verilog, vhdl models, symbols, lib, silicon libary etc... directly adding the library path will not arrange them like cells with different cellviews
any other suggestions ??

| directly copy the view into you cell directory.then you can find the view in you library manager.

hi ,
here we go with detailed steps of invoking icfb,
1) mkdir ( for example work_cadence)
2) cd work_cadence
3) copy cadence.cshr ( file nme changes, this has all setting for using icfb)
4) copy CDS.lib ( this is the file which has setting for using diff tech files eg 90nm, 65nm ,NCSU etc )
5) source cadence.cshrc
6)icfb&
if u have correct path setting to tech files in CDS.lib, i am sure it wull have all u wanted .
best regards
Suresh

it's very easy....
go to your "work DIR", where you start cadence with "icfb"
next you open cds.lib file with "nano" soft:
nano cds.lib
My cds.lib composition is here
(if you want you can copy my libraries)
SOFTINCLUDE $UCDPRJDIR/.ukcds5/${UK_CDS_PREFIX}cds.lib
DEFINE ahdlLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/samples/artist/ahdlLib
DEFINE rfLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/samples/artist/rfLib
DEFINE pllLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/samples/artist/pllLib
DEFINE bmslib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/samples/artist/bmslib
DEFINE analogLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/artist/analogLib
DEFINE functional $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/artist/functional
DEFINE basic $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/basic
DEFINE US_8ths $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/sheets/US_8ths
many libraries are in cadence folders....

drake and research235
that way doesnt work bec standard library has sub folders for verilog models,vhdl models, symbols, lib etc..
for example if you have analog library you have cell and different views for that cell that is functional, schematic, llayout etc..
So is it possible to get the standard cells also to icfb like we can each cells with different cell views??
Added after 3 minutes:
Getting analog libraries is easy what abt digital standard libraries is it possible or not ?
