can anyone please sugest me to get rid of this problem

thanks

[oermens]

assura316 is quite old, consider upgrading to assura32 or assura41. check first which version is supported by your foundry.

 

[nilay shah]

hi,
I have generated layout from schematics,
now I wanted to do DRC using assura,
I am using umc65nm technology,
But i don't know where to copy or install rule file,I am getting error in path directory,
So please explain me how I can install rule file.

 

[dick_freebird]

Looks to me like this is a missing techlib / techfile
problem, not a rules problem. Unless the rules don't
match the technology file. The foundry PDK ought to
have come with instructions on where things should
install and how things should be linked / defined. I
think you should start there. Like assura_tech.lib
link in your project home missing or wrong, maybe.
