All,
I wrote a description of a circuit in VHDL and then converted it to a
verilog netlist using encounter. Generated a gds2 file as well. I am
using OSU Standard Cells.
The problems starts when I try to im****t the netlist (ICFB -> Im****t -
> Verilog). My circuit description has a hierarchy in which the top
module is built using simpler sub-modules, which are in turn built out
of basic gates. When I 'im****t' the netlist, I see that I get
'schematic' and 'symbol' views of all the submodules (and I can
simulate them, I can go down the hirearchy and see trasistor level
design). But, my top module does not have 'schematic' view. I get
messages which are: "Verilog definition for module AOI21X1 was not
found. Using lib 'OSU_Standard Cells_AMI05' cell 'AOI21X1' view
'symbol' as its symbol".
It is strange, since the submodules also use the same basic gates
(like AOl21X1) these have been im****ted correctly.
Can anyone give me an idea on what's going on? I am using ICFB
5.10.41.169, or Cadence 2005.
Thanks!
