LEF allows the same port with multiple shape definitions. Does anybody know if innovus can create multiple duplicate shapes associated with the same port? Assume they are connected outside the block with perfect timing synchronization. Thank you!

I am working with innovus on a huge design. I found some cells are placed far away from both timing start points and timing end points. I suspect some other timing paths may be near-critical that results in this sub-optimal cell placement; or innovus has to place the cell far away due to congestion of placement or routing.

Is there a way to see why innovus places/moves the cell during place_opt_design or ccopt_design?

Also, is there a way to highlight all timing start points or timing end points that go through a cell? There may be thousands of timing paths through this cell. I tried using report_timing and timing debugger but it is very painful to click the highlight box and highlight the timing paths one by one.

Thank you for your help!

Hi,

Is there any way to instruct the tool to reduce the low metals effort and route more on top layers? 

We are currently setting up the Tempus flow and have ran into some mismatched data regarding ECO and timing reports. I generated a timing report before running ECO and saw six total setup violations. When running opt_signoff -setup, the initial setup summary that was printed in the shell only showed one violation. I can see that violation from the initial setup summary in my pre-ECO timing report and it is not the worst path. Upon further investigation, I forced the tool to try to fix setup on one of the other five violations from the timing report using the opt_signoff_select_setup_endpoints attribute and the tool said that the endpoint had positive slack and would be ignored.

Has anyone experienced something like this before?

Hi everyone. 

I'm very a new cadence user. I'm not good at using it and quite lost in finding a way to get the results. With the topic, I would like to ask you for some suggestions to improve my cadence skills.

I have some digital decision logic. Some are combinational logic, some are sequential logic that I would like to import or generate random input combination to the inputs of my decision logic to get the maximum, minimum, and average delay power dissipation and area when feeding the different input combination.

My logic has 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit input. The imported data tends to be decimal numbers.

I would like to ask you:

- which tool(s) are the most appropriate to import and feed the different combination to my decision logic?

- which tool is the most appropriate to synthesis with different number of input? - I have used Genus Synthesis Solution so far. However with my skill right now I can only let Genus synthesize my Verilog code one setup at a time. I'm not sure if I there is anyway I can feed a lot of input at a time and get those results (min, max, average of delay, power dissipation and area)

- which language or scripts I should pick up to use and achieve these results?

-where can I find information to solve my problem? which information shall I look for?

Thank you so much for your time!!

Best Regards

Hello,

When I draw a Fluid Guard Ring in Virtuoso, the layout is not visible, and instead, "do_something=nil" appears.

When I check the details with Q, it shows the same information as a regular NFGR guard ring, and Ctrl+F also displays the instance name, just like with a regular NFGR. 

Additionally, the Pcells of Fluid Guard Rings from previous projects appear broken. 

The version I’m currently using is not different from the one used in the past. Even when I access the same version as the one used during the project, the Pcells still appear broken.

These two issues are occurring, and I’m not sure what to check. I would greatly appreciate it if you could assist me in resolving this issue.

Hi,

My query is regarding importing of layout.

After importing, we see that the imported transistor instances and vias are all referring to the library in which they are imported, instead of referring to the technology library.

Please let me know how we can refer them to the technology library.

Will surely provide more details if my query is unclear.

Thanks,

Mallikarjun.

Hi All,

I'm using a code (abConvertPolygonToPath.ils) that I found in other posts to convert a rect object to a path object inside a pcell code, but when I try to run a DRC, the layout export fails due to a warning message, here is the log message

*WARNING* (DB-270001): Pcell evaluation for 18A_asaavedr/lay_mesh_BM0_BM4_3p6_3p6/layout has the following error(s):

*WARNING* (DB-270002): ("eval" 0 t nil ("*Error* eval: undefined function" abConvertPolygonToPath))

ERROR (XOASIS-231): Pcell evaluation failed for '18A_asaavedr/lay_mesh_BM0_BM4_3p6_3p6/layout' because the Pcell SKILL code contains either a syntax error or an unsupported XOasis function. Check the standard output or the Virtuoso log file for more information. Cadence recommends correcting the Pcell SKILL code to resolve the issue. However, to ignore these errors and continue the translation, you may use the 'ignorePcellEvalFail' option.

INFO (XOASIS-282): Translation Failed. '1' error(s) and '3' warning(s) found.

And when compile the code I get the following message:

*WARNING* defgeneric function already defined - abConvertPolygonToPath

I will aprreciate any help in how to waive this error, or fix it.

Thank you

I am scripting gds streamin using 'strmin', which works fine so far.

But, as it apparently doesn't have an option to specify where the cds.lib file is, I have to run it from the directory where the cds.lib file is, or I guess I could create a dummy one to source that one.

Is there a way to tell strmin where the cds.lib file is?

Hi Cadence & forumers, 

I am running a conformal LEC with a flattened netlist against RTL. 

The run hang for 5 days at the "analyze abort" step which is automatically launched by the compare. 

The netlist is flattened at some levels so hierarchical flow which I tried didn't help much. The flattened/highly optimized netlist is from customer and the ultimate goal. How shall I proceed now? 

On the a side note, a test run with a hierarchical netlist from a simple DC "compile -map_effort medium" command finished after 1 day or so. 

Thank you!

Hi everyone, 

Is there any method to generate "Sheet" column for a pin report like table below? The column "Name.Pin" & "Signal" can be generated easily, but I have no idea to generate the column of "Sheet Name".

The software using here are Allegro Design Entry HDL, OrCAD Capture and Allegro PCB Editor. Can these 3 software generate "Sheet Name" data?

Thank you. 

hi

How can I tell the LEC tool to ignore a combination of Primary input bus in both Golden and revised.

For example in both Golden and revised there is 

input [3:0] data_in

I want LEC not to check the case that data_in[3:0] == 4'b1000

I am trying to understand the Linting process. I know that mainly JasperGold is the tool for this purpose. Though I think JasperGold is more suited for later stages of the design. As a RTL Design Engineer, I want to make sure that if another tool has the capability of doing Linting earlier in the flow. for example, does Xcelium, Genus or Confomal support linting. I have seen some contradicting information online regarding this topic, though I can't find anything related to Linting on any of these tools.

Thanks
