Hi,
The symbol library (*.sdb) can not affect to the synthesis of Design Compiler tool. Can you show the TCL script to synthesize your design?
Maybe, you setup the values of link_library or search_path variables incorrect!!!
Regards
Re: Problems with DesignCompiler/PrimeTime Flow
Hi,
I think you setup the SDF file error, you can try one of the following ways in turn:
1. Only read the netlist (not read the SDF) file, and make the simulation ==> any error?
2. Modify the SDF file (only include delay of one 1 cell), and make...
Hi,
Can you show more detail about your design?
- may be digital design?
- I measure the input capacitance on the clock pin by simulation I am getting 1.58fF ==> by which tool?
- 0.6fF and 0.4fF ==> which tool?
If this is the digital design, you can use PrimeTime tool to get the net that...
Re: Problems with DesignCompiler/PrimeTime Flow
Hi Thawra-Kadeed,
With the violation $hold( posedge CK:16 ns, negedge E:16 ns, 1 ns ), I think you got the issue when loading the sdf file. Why?
Because with the timing simulation, we will never get the timing value is the integer number (16ns)...
Hi preethi19,
DFT implementation
- To implement DFT for digital design, the DFT compiler (Synopsys) will replace the normal registers by the scan registers (the regiter with 2 inputs: D and TI). Then, DFT compiler will create scan chains from all registers, to control the value of all output...
Re: Problems with DesignCompiler/PrimeTime Flow
Hi Thawra-Kadeed,
You can use the Synopsys Design Flow to estimate the power of your design, as following:
1. Use Design Compiler to generate netlist ==> A.v, A.sdc
2. Use IC Compiler to layout the design A.v, A.sdc ==> B.v, B.sdf, B.sbpf
