@z-a-p-k-i-n-g Did you use the script from the commandline?

Yup

Could you please send a screenshot?

when I try to open a drc marker database, I'm getting this issue

which relates to this line:

Is this a klayout issue or an openlane issue?

@Matt Venn Is that GF180MCU or sky?

sky130

Hi, I have gf180mcu PDK installed. Does anyone know how to make the gf180mcu pcell library show here? Should I include the pdk path in some init files or copy the pdk to somewhere? Thanks and regards!

Hi, Can Klayout be used for analog layout in place of Magic ? I find Magic bit uncomfortable to use.

If so, kindly share the resource which can help with using Klayout with sky130 pdk.

@yrrapt Can you please guide how to setup sky130 pdk for doing analog layout in Klayout as shown in youtube video

Hi, just a quick question. Does Klayout support PEX as Magic does ?

I'm using klayout inside the OpenLane docker image (make mount) and looking for suggestions on the best way to utilize the sky130 lyp, lyt, DRC, and LVS files in /openlane/pdks/sky130A/libs.tech/klayout. I can import and set these up each time I call klayout, but I'd like something persistent. However, klayout wants to create /.klayout which is not writable in the docker. Is there a way to specify the .klayout directory for klayout other than the $HOME directory?

klayout LVS isn't set up for sky130, is it?

I'm trying to run LVS with klayout on a simple inverter from the library. I use the run_lvs.py script on this gds and schematic file (.sp), but it doesn't seem to match. The extracted netlist looks correct though! I also tried explicitly naming the well the same thing (VNB) but that didn't fix it either. For some reason nothing matches, not pins, devices, nothing.

@Ahmed Ramadan (Mabrains) and @yrrapt Was trying to use klayout with sky130 pdk as per repo https://github.com/efabless/sky130_klayout_pdk. But it seems not working as seen in attached file. Please suggest what might be issue here.

Is there a way to create and import all the transistors from a spice netlist?

Currently I'm making transistors in magic and importing them one by one into klayout, which is painful

Hi, can KLayout be used to run parasitic extraction on a layout?

why is that in klayout when I open a DEF file (which is after floorplan stage ) along with LEF file , I do not see standard cells anywhere in the klayout( The way magic shows in the left corner "parked")

Hello members, I am sorry about my impatient , any idea about this https://open-source-silicon.slack.com/archives/C01DH7SPX41/p1681407399279679?thread_ts=1681407399.279679&cid=C01DH7SPX41

@yrrapt @Matt Venn Video on Klayout on was quite useful. Thanks for it. But steps to integrate sky130 pdk with Klayout are still not clear. Can you please provide clarity on it.

@Sam Ellicott has left the channel

Are there any klayout pcell type additions for sky130? I saw something in the mabrains github repo, but it seems incomplete.

Hello. I have downloaded klayout through the git repository and ran ,/build. sh, but after building, running klayout or klayout-e did nothing. After that I used sudo apt-get inslatt kaylot, it started but it crashed right after that. Which is the right way to install klayout on ubuntu?(i am a linux newcomer btw)

Hello. I have encountered this error while trying madbrain's sky130 pdk for klayout. I am using klayout 28. Any ideas how can I fix it?

How do I set up layer names (as opposed to just numbers) for imported GDS files in klayout? It would be very helpful to see list of layers when doing DRC checks

Hi, Does anyone know if I can already run LVS and DRC in klayout?
