@Krzysztof Herman OpenVAF executables were downloaded on my Ubuntu machine but nothing happens when I try to run it. Any suggestions ?

@vks did you follow the installation instructions https://openvaf.semimod.de/docs/getting-started/installation/ ? you could copy your binary into

usr/local/bin/

and then try to run

openvaf --help

if this works you can then run the python script in

xschem

directory. It will call openvaf, compile the psp103 model and put the binary in a simulation directory. Please report if it worked for you.

@Krzysztof Herman Yes, it is working now following steps shared. What would be the standard way of invoking xschem with IHP pdk for my own design at some other path? Is it to setup

PDK_ROOT

variable and then run

python3 install.py

script.

when you start

xschem

elsewhere it will know nothing about the PDK data so what you have to do is to point to the configuration file, namely

xschemrc

xschem --rcfile $PDK_ROOT/ihp-sg13g2/libs.tech/xschem/xschemrc

I believe copying

$PDK_ROOT/ihp-sg13g2/libs.tech/xschem/xschemrc

file or creating it's link in my local directory will also work. Please confirm.

should work, just try it out

Yes, it works. Thanks for you help
