Hi, Is there any way by which I can see my user_project_wrapper.gds merged with the caravel? Is there any workaround that can help ? @Dinesh A @Matt Venn @Mitch Bailey

As far as I know you can just open the top gds and replace the user wrapper with your own.

I think if you clone the caravel repo and put your user project wrapper gds there, then run make ship that should do it

export CARAVEL_LITE=0
make install
make install_mcw

Copy your

user_project_wrapper.gds

to the

gds

directory.

make gpio_defaults
export USED_ID=<your favorite 8 digit hex number>
make set_user_id
make ship

That should get you pretty close.

will try this, Thanks.

It's an 8-digit code to uniquely identify your chip. You can set it to any 8 digit hex number eg.

export USER_ID="01234567"

This is the error i get:

Cell sky130_ef_sc_hd__decap_12 is unavailable.  It could not be expanded.

sky130_ef_sc_hd__decap_12

is a replacement for

sky130_fd_sc_hd__decap_12

with less

li

. Should be in the pdk. Is this an openlane, magic, netgen, xschem or klayout error?

Hi @Mitch Bailey now that error is cleared, but when I give

make ship

or

make truck

i get the errors as :

Cell sky130_sram_1kbyte_1rw1r_32x256_8 is unavailable. It could not be expanded.

Cell sky130_sram_1kbyte_1rw1r_32x256_8 is unavailable. It could not be expanded.

Cell sky130_sram_1kbyte_1rw1r_32x256_8 is unavailable. It could not be expanded.

Cell sky130_sram_1kbyte_1rw1r_32x256_8 is unavailable. It could not be expanded.

But this is not the case with the new MPW7 run when i give it. I dont get these errors. What might be the reason.?

The sram modules should be located in the

$PDK_ROOT/sky130A/libs.ref/sky130_sram_macros

directory. Check your PDK(s) to be sure it's there.

It is available in the Path. But, I dont know why is it giving me an error like this.

A slightly different spacing between some of the layers in the stackup
