    Resistance extraction for power and ground nets

    Hi All, I am trying to obtain a SPICE netlist for the power and ground nets from a Cadence Encounter design that I can then join with other networks. Does anyone know how this might be done? I have tried using the 'extract special nets' check box on the Fire and Ice extraction window but it...

    Boolean cell description format

    It seems that the boolean format is an older, not well supported, format. I think the currently preferred method is to edit a gate file created by elc. The gate file format is described in the elc documentation.

    Boolean cell description format

    I want to use the format the elc will understand. I don't know what that is. I've seen it referred to as the synspec boolean format, but I'm not sure if that is correct or not.

    Boolean cell description format

    I'm trying to use Encounter Library Characterizer to characterize a 4-ported register cell. Apparently ELC can't figure out what the logical description of the cell is. I believe I can tell it what the cell does using the db_bool command, however I don't know what the format is. Here is an...

    Large macro cell timing and power characteriztion

    I have found some more information. It appears that the .lib format is the Synopsys liberty library format. I found a guide on edaboard that gives a simple tutorial for characterizing a simple inverter. However, I am still no closer to finding out how to characterize a larger cell. I am...

    Large macro cell timing and power characteriztion

    Hi all, I am trying to generate the .lib file (timing and power characterization) for a large full-custom macro cell. I plan to use the macro in Cadence Encounter. Is there a tool for automatically generating the .lib file from an extracted spice netlist? The spice netlist for the full module...
