calibre drc

Discussion in 'Cadence' started by Roland.Fontaine, Feb 16, 2006.

  1. I am trying to run a batch drc job using Calibre. I have tried many
    different command line configuration, with no luck. Does any one have
    some examples of how to submit mulitple DRC/LVS jobs with Calibre from
    a command line.

  2. You have to create a kind of top command rule file, including e.g.

    LAYOUT PATH "MY_GDS_DATABASE.gds"
    LAYOUT PRIMARY "MY_GDS_TOPCELL_NAME"
    LAYOUT SYSTEM GDSII

    DRC RESULTS DATABASE "myResults.results" ASCII
    DRC MAXIMUM RESULTS 1000
    DRC MAXIMUM VERTEX 4096

    DRC CELL NAME NO
    DRC SUMMARY REPORT "mySummary.summary" REPLACE HIER

    INCLUDE "/<myPath>/myDRCrules.rul"


    Then do a
    calibre -drc myTopRuleFile.rul


    Should work.

  3. may you can just make a list of the cells for which
    the drc is to be done then just read from that file and make directory
    of the cellname copy ctrl file modify it for cellname and then fire the

    job all this can be done with a simple shell script . so try it once
    eg.

    1 file containg 10 cells
    2. first cell abd
    3. make directory abc
    4 copy ctrl file into abc
    5 modify it with abc.gds,abc.cdl
    6 run drc
    come back and repeat the process for next cell
