Hi all, 

I have made a custom cell in Innovus that I will be instantiating into a bigger block, which I will also be using Innovus to do the Place & Route. 

I understand that I can generate a *.lef file and a *.lib file using Innovus. However, I need to also create a *.db file (these format of files are often used in DC Compiler synthesis tool). 

Is there a way to create the *.db file from Innovus? Or, is there a tool that I can use to create this *.db file? 

Thank you for your time. 

The DBDoctor application checks the database for errors and other problems, and presents a report about them. DBDoctor supports .brd, .mcm, .mdd, .psm, .dra, .pad, .sav, and .scf databases.

DBDoctor can:

• Analyze and fix database problems.
• Eliminate duplicate vias.
• Perform batch design rule checking (DRC).
• Upgrade databases more than one revision old.

To verify the integrity of a drawing database at any time during the design cycle, run DBDoctor at regular intervals but make sure you always run it after completing a design.

You can run DBDoctor to verify work in progress, or from a terminal window outside the layout editor, perhaps to check multiple input designs in batch mode by using wildcards and various switches. You do not have to run the layout editor to use DBDoctor.

To run this from Allegro X APD and Allegro PCB Editor, go to Tools > Database Check.

You can also go to the Start menu and select Cadence PCB Utilities 2023 > PCB DB Doctor 2023.

You can also use the following command to run DBDoctor in batch mode in the system command prompt:

dbdoctor [-check_only] [-drc] [-drc_only] [-shapes][-no_backup] [-outfile <newboardname.brd>]>

Comment below if you want to know more about this command and its integration with SKILL programming!!

Loading new netlist into 23.1 Apparently it does not like many of the specified footprints or padstacks. I have to open the footprint in 231., save the pad stack then save the footprint. This is very time consuming and frustrating to say the least.

I also get the following message

WARNING(SPMHNI-194): Symbol 'SMD_SOD123_ANODE_PIN1' used by RefDes D30 for device 'DIODE_0_SMD_SOD123_ANODE_PIN1_1N4148W-7-F' not found.

The symbol either does not exist in the library path (PSMPATH) or is an old symbol from a previous release.  

Set the correct library path if not set or use dbdo

     The current version of software is unable to open design smd_sod123_anode_pin1.

The design was last saved using version 16.5 and must be updated using DB Doctor. [help]


Going to DB Doctor does nothing, no option to update a footprint?

A sovereign exposure exchange is a cost-effective risk management tool used by multilateral development banks (MDBs) to reduce sovereign portfolio concentration risks. It provides capital relief for MDBs by exchanging loan guarantees on credit exposure from borrowing countries where an MDB is highly concentrated for exposure to countries where the MBD’s exposure is lower or nonexistent.

This video introduces a new publication presenting five case studies of projects in the People's Republic of China that illustrate how effective solutions to environmental and social problems have been applied in different contexts.

MSNBC’s Chris Hayes called out Fox News for not showing the full context of Donald Trump’s “enemy within” comments during Vice President Kamala Harris’ interview on the network earlier Wednesday.

The anchor of All In opened his broadcast by calling attention to something that Harris herself did in the sit-down with Fox’s Bret Baier. The clip that the right-wing network showed to Harris as part of Baier’s question was of Trump during his all-female town hall event in Georgia—the one where Trump bizarrely argued he was the “father of IVF.”

In the clip that Fox aired directly to Harris during her interview, Trump wasn’t heard talking about how former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi or Rep. Adam Schiff are the “enemy within.” Instead, Fox made it so Harris had to react to him talking more mildly about “phony investigations.” The network omitted Trump’s line about “the enemy within.”

Ceefax - the BBC's teletext service - finally ends its long career tonight when it is due to be switched off at 23:30 BST. There is more on this, and the history of the service, in our news story today and linked coverage.

As each part of the UK has in turn gone through the switchover to digital and lost the Ceefax service in the process, it has been a long farewell, which I have written about here before.

Now, with the analogue TV signal in Northern Ireland being switched off, the last stage in the process has arrived, and the service will come to an end.

The BBC Red Button services will carry on the Ceefax tradition of providing clear and concise news from around the UK and the world, on demand, on your TV.

Indeed the Red Button service is in the process of being reinvented for internet-enabled TV sets, and this “Connected Red Button” service will combine the simplicity of traditional Red Button with the flexibility and depth of online. My colleague Daniel Danker has written about this work here and there is already a BBC News app for connected TVs which I wrote about here and here when it launched.

At its peak, Ceefax had an audience of some 20 million viewers a week, and as the end of the service has approached, it has received several thousand letters and emails of thanks from viewers.

In a tribute to the clarity of Ceefax’s simple, concise format and news stories, and to mark Ceefax's last day, the Plain English Campaign - which campaigns for clear, concise language in public information - has given Ceefax a lifetime achievement award.

It's an honour to have received so many tributes from Ceefax viewers, and to get this award, and both are a recognition of the skill and dedication of all the journalists who have worked on the service over the years, and the care they have taken in writing every story.
