    Cadence tools and older kernels?

    I was wondering if it is possible to install latest Cadence tools such as ic615, mmsim11 and assura4 on newer kernels of RHEL/CentOS 6.x? According to Cadence supported platform matrix only RHEL 3, 4 and 5 and some other are supported which have older kernels and those systems might not support...

    Unusual hard disk problem!

    By the way, there was no such problem with Windows 7 only and it started after Linux installation (dual boot) and installing grub on MBR. The laptop is relatively new and it seems to be some other reason.

    RHEL USB boot howto for > 4GB image size

    I have a DVD iso image of RHEL5.9 and want to make a bootable USB out of it but the iso size is greater than 4GB for a FAT formatted USB. One suggestion for using ISO2USB utility is to use CD images instead of DVD, but don't know how to create CD images and which files need to be in the first CD...

    Assura QRC setting problem

    I am having problem with Assura QRC settings. The DRC and LVS runs fine but when the QRC run form is opened, I cannot select the "technology" from the drop down menu (somehow it is disabled) and if I set the "Setup Dir" correctly, QRC runs fine with successful extraction. If I use QRC Setup...

    FreePDK45 model files

    Yes, the syntax of hspice_nom.include file does not seems to be correct because when I include the individual .inc files the simulation runs fine with Spectre. Any idea for correct format for .include file? Also how to simulate the extracted netlist or Calibre View generated by Calibre PEX?

    FreePDK45 model files

    With NCSU FreePDK45 only hspice model files are available and was wondering if someone has put effort for Spectre model files to be freely available? The Spectre simulator cannot be used with hspice model files and the hspiceD simulator is not supported by Cadence and we need to install that...

    Calibre use with gpdk045?

    Is it possible to use Cadence design kit (gpdk045) for Calibre DRC, LVS and QRC? I can only find Assura rules in gpdk045, so if possible, how?

    Problem with Cadence gpdk090

    Found the reason... it is the OA version incompatibility issue. If you want to use the latest gpdk (version 4.6)... use IC612 or later release. IC610 use OA2.2 but IC615 uses OA22.41. The major change was between IC611 and IC612.
