Example Library File

The example below uses the Reference directive only, which is common. It illustrates some of the types of references that are possible.

(Library demo.lib);

# simple reference to native cell
Reference acell            /usr/.../xic_cells/acell

# simple reference to native cell, with name change
Reference buffer           /usr/.../xic_cells/cell32

# browsable reference to a GDSII file
Reference gdsfile.gds      /usr/.../gdsfile.gds

# reference to cell in GDSII file, with name change
Reference mux8_1           /usr/.../gdsfile.gds      MUX

# reference to cell in CIF file
Reference and5             /usr/.../ciffile.cif      and5

# browsable reference to another library
Reference stdcells_25.lib  /usr/.../stdcells_25.lib

# indirect references to cells in another library
Reference orgate_25        /usr/.../stdcells_25.lib  orgate
Reference andgate_25       /usr/.../stdcells_25.lib  andgate

# Reference to all layout files and libraries found in a directory
