UMC013

From Virtual Silicon we have a design kit for the United Microelectronics Company 0.13u
CMOS process.

The kit consists of a standard logic cell library and IO-pads. The libraries have been compiled
for use with Synopsys v2002.05.


Synthesis in Synopsys v2002.05

The environment can be initialized by

tde> source ~synopsys/v2002.05s/umc013_setup

which will perform the definitions and copy some setup files.

Some manuals describing the standard logic cells and IO -pads are

$UMC_LIB/stdcells.pdf
$UMC_LIB/iopads.pdf
$UMC_LIB/iopads_app.pdf

** Synopsys v2003.06 **

Use the command below for this newer version of Synopsys. The rest is as above.

tde> source ~synopsys/v2003.06/umc013_setup


Simulation in ModelSim

The libraries have been compiled with the 5.6 version of ModelSim. After initializing, the libraries
can be mapped to your environment by the commands

> vmap umce13h210t3 $UMC_LIB/msimlibs/umce13h210t3        # Standard Cells
> vmap umce13h350t3 $UMC_LIB/msimlibs/umce13h350t3        # Inline IO-Pads



Place 'n' Route

The command '$UMC_LIB/build_se_dir' will create suitable setup files for Silicon Ensemble, an
empty directory is highly recommended.

A small example is also copied and the commands for the entire routing process can be studied and
executed from the command file MedFilt.mac.


Clock Tree generation may be performed by the tool CT-Gen, commands in ctgen.commands.
