hello. I have some problem running Star-RC to make SPEF file during autoP&R (innovus).
I worked on PNR. so I have *.v, *.lef, *.def and .itf .
below script is use. when i extract for SPEF.
-----------------------------------------
But, Running Star-RC causes an error called "ERROR: MACRO statement before any LAYER statement. (SX-2093)"
I think an error occurred in MAPPING FILE.
MAPPING FILE format is as below.
-----------------------------------------
Q1.
How to create a spef file using starRC?
Q2.
I read something, tlu+ can convert mapping file. right?
Q3.
what is the problem about Mapping file?
Q4.
Can i use a Calibre to make SPEF file?
my Front Eng say, spef file delay info is not match.
Please Answer. have a good time.
