Thank you in advance~
 

Yes, in Sonnet's Cadence interface you can import existing technology files from different formats, for example tch or Assura procfile.

After import, Sonnet stores this in Sonnet's matl file format. I have created the "m/matl" editor to work with Sonnet matl files, visualize the stackup and also simplify it by merging layers. The "m/matl" editor is available for download here: Dr. Mühlhaus Consulting & Software GmbH » Material file utility

Fine!

The documentation for the Cadence interface is in the "translators.pdf" manual.
You can open that from the Sonnet Taskbar > Manuals.

If you are still using Sonnet 13.52, maybe you shoudl upgrade to 13.54.
There are some important bugfixes related to Cadence/Linux/RFIC

V13.56 is now available and we've added many new behind the scenes enhancements to be able to handle much larger geometries, especially when it comes to pin to port recognition. We've also included many new scripts for automation with merging ground planes, changing the via drawing layer for MIM caps to a temporary drawing layer for mapping purposes, deleting unwanted polygons not on the "drawing" purpose, and much, much more.

Hi nazi_79,

Unfortunately, the cadence interface is only available for Sonnet professional.
