assura qrc
Hello, I am having trouble running Assura RCX. I am currently using Cadence Virtuoso 6.1.3 with IBM PDK cmos10lpe (65nm). I ran Assura LVS on a simple inverter cell and it has no probem passing LVS check (I ran DRC on the same inverter with Synopsys Hercules because the IBM PDK that I am using does not provide a rule set for Assura DRC).
Then I tried to run Assura RCX by selecting "Assura -> Run RCX" from the Virtuoso Layout Editor menu. For some unknown reason, it causes Cadence to crash. Here is a part of the log file
I am especially puzzled by the warning "*WARNING* No tech dir found for tech name NONE" because I did specify the technology in Assura -> Setup -> RCX Setup or something like that. I definitely had specified the technology when I ran LVS earlier.
I have another question regarding Cadence QRC. Is this part of Assura instalation? I couldn't find anything that resembles QRC in the Software Download page. The IBM PDK that I am using supports QRC, but I couldn't find it in the Assura menu from the Virtuoso Layout Editor menu.
Thanks in advance
