Hi Said, I don't know the technology you use (0.5 micron/0.35 etc ???) ... The default technological file cmos_8.rds is not a real technology (it's a symbolic one : 1 micron = 1 lambda) The file prol10_8.rds, prol05.rds etc .. are 'real' technological files but i think you will have to modify them. In particular the table called TABLE GDS_LAYER wich tanslates GDS layer id in RDS layer name (where RDS is an Alliance data structure) Best regards, Ludo.
