IC5141 - -How do I add in LSW ?

IC5141 LSW

Hi members,

I have just installed IC5141 under Fedora 3. Unfortunately the LSW Editor has only the background layer.

How do I add in LSW (Layer Window) the commonly used
layers (metal_1, poly, pimp, nnwell, etc ...) ?

I think that the problem is related to the tech Files attachement but I dont know the location of that file on my machine.

Is that file given by IC5141 or we have to download it from a IC manufacturer like TSMC ..

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

The technology file is supplied by a foundry.

Do you have the PDK setup?

At the top of the LSW, the current library name will be displayed. Is it "cdsDefTechLib"? This means you answered "Don't need a technology file" when you created a new library.

Usually a ascii technology file (.tf file) will be provided by foundry. You can use this file to create a new library, or load the ascii technology file to a existing library ( this library should have a techfile, i. e., not connected to another library).
