calibre drc

[Roland.Fontaine@gmail.com]

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.

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.

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
