Hello Pierce,
Why do you use version 7 ? The latest released
Electric version is 8.04.
It will be easier for me to help you with technology
tuning of Electric 8.04,
because I already forgot many things from C Eelctric.
For now, I see that Electric 8 reads technology
libraries from Electric 7 with errors.
I can look more tomorrow (on my work computer).
However, if you can recreate the technology library
in Electric 8 , then I shall look immediatly
at technology issues in Electric 8 rather than
dealing with incompatibilities of Electric 8 and
Electric 7.
Moreover, I am developing an Xml format for
technology description which will apper in Electric
8.05 .
I beleive that AMI technology example can be a test
of usability of Xml technology description.

Hello,
I've since found that the metal spacing error mentioned below does get
detected by the DRC. I've also discovered that connecting to the transistor
pins is better than I first thought, if I work with it, but I still haven't
been able to avoid OVERLAP DRC errors.
Thank you,
Pierce

Hello,
I have have been attempting to modify the mocmos library for the (MOSIS) AMI
1.5u SCNA ABN process. In the modified technology, I built an NPN transistor
using a pbase layer, all created according to the SCNA layer map as described
here: http://www.mosis.com/Technical/Layermaps/lm-scmos_scna.html
(I also removed the P-Well in the N-Transistor, since this process does not
have a P-Well.)
There are at least two issues I have run into. First I deliberately included
a metal1-metal1 spacing error to see if the DRC would detect the error but it
doesn't. Also, I can't seem to connect to the pins of the npn transistor Node,
when trying to use the node in a layout. Actually I can connect to them but not
without a DRC metal1 spacing error. For other nodes, the layout editor seems to
know to connect a metal1 arc to a metal1 port, and without DRC errors.
I've attached the libary to this email. If anyone would check it out and let
me know what I'm doing wrong I would appreciate it very much.
Thank you,
Pierce Keating
