Hi,

I have synthesized a verilog code. When performing the pnr in innovus it is showing the error "Instance g5891__718 (similar for other) of the cell AND2_X6 has no physical library or has wrong dimension  values (<=0). Check your design setup to make sure the physical library is loaded in and attribute specified in library are correct.

When importing synthesized netlist in virtuoso then it says " Module AND2_X6, instantiated in the top module decoder, is not defined. Therefore the top module decoder will be imported as functional."

Please help what's going on here? 

I'm not able to export a CIS Standard BOM to a Microsoft 365 Excel (business subscription, version 2111).
Selecting the "Export BOM report to Excel" option opens a new Excel window, but OrCAD (17.4-2019 S023) won't fill it with any data...

I tried it on a different PC with Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2019 Excel (strangely the version number is the same: 2111) and with OrCAD 17.4-2019 S016 and it worked flawlessly.

Does anybody experiencing the same issue?
Does the Excel variant, the OrCAD version or the PC itself causing this?
Thanks for any help!

I'm working on the code coverage. Doing a metrics analysis by default we see overall average grade and overall covered. But when i do a block analysis on an instance i see overall covered grade, code covered grade, block covered grade, statement covered grade, expression covered grade, toggle covered grade.

As I dont know the difference I started to read the IMC user guide and came to know there are 3 things we come across while doing a code coverage local, covered, average

From my understanding

local - child instances metrics doesnt reach the parent level. For example, we have an instance Q and its sub instances like Q.a, Q.b. Block Local grade of Q can be 100% even when its instances Q.a and Q.b a block local grades isnt at 100%.

In the attached image there is formula 

The key difference between average and covered is the weights.

Average : Mathematically taking the above scenario where Q.a, and Q.b has 10 blocks each. Q.a has covered 8 blocks and q.b has covered 2 blocks. Now if we take the normal average it should be total covered/ totatl number = 8+2/10+10 yielding 50%. But when we add weights saying Q.a is 70% and Q.b is 30% the new number would be (8*0.7+2*0.3) / (10*0.7+10*0.3) resulting 62%. Because of the weights we see 12% bump.

Covered: there is no role of weights.

Among these 3 metrics i've changed my default view to this in the image to get more realistic picture when i do analyze metrics. Do you guys agree with the approach?

Power efficiency is a critical factor in the fast-evolving world of semiconductor design.

The IEEE 1801 standard, also known as UPF (Unified Power Format), was developed by the IEEE to address the intricate challenges associated with power management in contemporary semiconductor designs. This standard offers a uniform framework for defining power domains, power states, and power intent, ensuring consistency across diverse tools and phases of the design process. By utilizing UPF, you can precisely model and regulate power consumption, a critical aspect for battery-operated devices, high-performance computing, and energy-efficient designs.

The key concepts of IEEE 1801 are:

1. Power domains
2. Power states
3. Power gating and isolation
4. Power switches
5. Level shifters, isolation, and retention cells
6. Macro model

Based on these building blocks, you write the power intent of the design.

The power intent for the design includes identifying/implementing low-power strategies that provide a clear description of the power architecture of a design.

The power definitions can effectively manage power consumption and ensure the chip meets its power and performance requirements.

You can start by creating the Power Supply Network, which defines how power is supplied to the design's various power domains and logic cells.

What's the next step to build the file? How do you understand the various concepts related to IEEE 1801? How do you complete the rest of the power intent file?

Fundamentals of IEEE 1801 Low-Power Specification Format Training

This course is a complete tutorial for understanding the fundamentals of IEEE 1801 low-power specification format concepts. You learn about IEEE 1801 power supply networks, ground ports and nets, creating and connecting supply ports/nets, power domain, power switch, power states, defining isolation and level shifter strategies, hierarchical IEEE 1801, and various versions of the IEEE 1801. You also explore how power intent information can be used for a design across various flow stages, such as functional verification, synthesis, logic equivalency checking, place-and-route, test, timing signoff, power integrity, and so forth, using Cadence^® tools.
