convert lib to db

Yes.You can use library_compiler to convert your libary from lib format to db format.
%dc_shell
dc_shell>read_lib ./path/library_file_name.lib(ex: TSM018AG_AASW.lib)
dc_shell>write_lib library_name -f db -o ./path/library_file_name.db

That's dc_shell, right?, but it really works.

lc_shell

Yes.

Both dc_shell (Design Compiler) and Library Compiler (lc_shell)
can do this translation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
lc_shell> read_lib ...
lc_shell> write_lib ...

synopsys convert lib to db

Use "read_lib", then "write_lib", of course you need a library compiler license.

synopsys lib convert db

You 'll need a library-compiler license to convert .lib to a .db with functional description. However for black-box translation with timing parameter only, the error message complaining no LC license can be ignored. The .db still works, who cares....

convert .db to .lib

You CAN NOT use those commands from DC if you
dont have a library compiler license.
