Hi,

I need to use UMC 90nm design kit. I am following the tutorial in FDK_User_Guide_V1_2.pdf I try to make Assura-DRC, but I cannot set technology. Actually I dont know how to use assura_tech.lib and techRuleSets files.

Can anybody help me about initializing cadence and making DRC? My cds.lib file is below.

Thanks

cds.lib file:

DEFINE cdsDefTechLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdsDefTechLib
DEFINE basic $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/basic
DEFINE analogLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/artist/analogLib
INCLUDE /apps/DESIGNKITS/UMC/UMC90/Designkits/Cadence/cds.lib
DEFINE MyDesignLib /home/refik/90nm/myDesignDir/MyDesignLib
DEFINE avTech /apps/CDS/2009_2010/ASSURA_32/Assura_install/tools/assura/etc/avt$

/apps/DESIGNKITS/UMC/UMC90/Designkits/Cadence/cds.lib file:

DEFINE cdsDefTechLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdsDefTechLib
DEFINE basic $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/basic
DEFINE analogLib $CDS_INST_DIR/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/artist/analogLib
DEFINE umc90nm ./umc90nm
 

Before open the drc gui, make sure you have load the assura_tech.lib to the Technology under Assura's menu. A sample of the assura_tech.lib looks like:
DEFINE umc90nm_DRC ./RuleDecks/Assura/DRC
DEFINE umc90nm_LVS ./RuleDecks/Assura/LVS
When Assura receive the technology file, you can open up DRC command window and do the check.
