hello guyz.i have a question in backend.i have physical implementation in cadence encounter for a simple alu.now i want to verify my design in cadence virtuso.i want to do DRC,LVS.so i dont know how to export my design into virtuso.can any one help me out?
U want to do the physical verification but I dont understand why u want to import it to Virtuoso . Can u tell us which tools ur using for checks .. if it is Diva or dracula rules set .. u can just add the gds file in cds.lib file and open the icfb or may be in the icfb there are few options to import the design. both the gds and the netlist.
or if ur using mentor calibre .. u can just opne the calibre gui and prform the LvS and DRC.
so if u can tell which rules file u using .. there could be more inputs form our side ..
U need atleast one set of rules from diva r dracula or calibre // the rules file has all the design rules. we can not do DRC from encounter as far as I know .. ..
check for any slides which tells u how u can make a layout and checj for DRC nd LVS using differet tools
