When I import gds file, I can't see instance name and net name, so I can't repair error. When I place and route with Encounter I see instance name, but I don't know why I can't see it in Vituoso.
What must I do?
I see in Soc_encounter tutorial have " Attach Instance Name" and "Attach Net Name". I don't know how to use it. Please help me!
i have faced this problem b4, for this u need to make some changes in map file for "TEXT" and additional to that
some setting for streamout command and virtuoso, it goes like this
Step 1: In FE while streamOut use "attachNetName" with any attribute number
streamOut -attachInstanceName 102 -attachNetName 103 <other options>
Step 2: In Virtuoso, map the attributes to the EncouterNetName property using the user defined
property map file section of your PIPO form
Example map file:
-----attrMap.il----------
-f v
102 inst encInstName
103 path encNetName
103 rect encNetName
103 inst encNetName
--------------------------
With this the net name will show up as property in Virtuoso.
hope this will solve problem, if not contact CADENCE..
You try repair layer at streamout.map. I think you don't need to know instance name you still can run LVS after place and route. You need to know in out name. I think so
