These settings control the size of the overall ViVA window. I've tried them and they work fine. I set them, opened a ViVA window, and the size was controlled (using Tools->Waveform if I use the...

I have encountered similar problems when doing transient simulation on a long chain of inverters with 90nm SOI. For me the convergence problem usually occurs if the ratio between pmos width and nmos...

I know this is a simple question, but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere for Cadence 17.4 to create a rubout.

Hi I've written a SKILL program that update a number of padstacks and are looking for a function like "refresh padstacks" to refresh all padstacks from the library. I tried embedding script generation...
View ArticleForum Post: RE: Partial Etch Length
Yes, that works for just measuring one segment, but if I need to measure the etch length of multiple segments (and not the whole cline), then I need to click on each segment separately and add them all...

Newer mind, I did to much copy and paste from another program, I forgot to remove +i from the the scriptmode line. So problem is solved although I would still prefer a real axl command over scripting....

Dear Andrew, Is there a way to find the max/min value in an array A[6][8] (created by using abMultiDimArray.il). I want to find the min/max of A[0] [] (0th row) and min/max of A[][0] (0th column).

I could probably come up with a complicated macro or function to generalise this, but don't have time right now. So assuming it's a simple two-dimensional array, something like:...

Can we use CCSCreateWaveCSV().

It looks as if you've set the font size far too large. Some of the older forms don't scale well with font size changes, so you can either reset the font sizes (go to Options->Fonts in the CIW and...
