Before we go
1 - any red line is a terminal command
2 - you can download cadence IC616/IC617 and MMSIM from this link
3 - here i assumed you have successfully installed centos 6.8
4 - my bashrc file
su
chmod u+w /etc/sudoers
gedit /etc/sudoers
add following line:
xxx ALL=(ALL) ALL under root ALL=(ALL) ALL # xxx is username
chmod u-w /etc/sudoers
b) remove gedit warning:
$sudo mkdir -p /root/.local/share/
cd /etc/sysconfig
gedit /etc/sysconfig/network “used by system boot”
change HOSTNAME=xxx
" xxx is the hostname
gedit /etc/hosts " map host to IP address
- host format:
ip address / host.domain / hostname
- host name used by local network
- domain name used by internet
Example:
At this point all the necessary changes that needed to be made have been made, you will want to restart
networking on your server to make sure that changes will be persistent on reboot:
sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
sudo shutdown -r now
b) Install necessary packages
c) Make some necessary folders
sudo mkdir /home/usr/eda
sudo chmod -R 777 /home/usr/eda
Change all the packages to current usr by
sudo chown usr ./*
sudo chgrp usr ./*
uncompress all install tar files by
for tar in Base_IC06.16.005_lnx86_*of8.tar;
do tar xvf
tar;done
Uncompress iscape
b) Open iscape classic view
cd ~/iscape/bin
./iscape.sh
Then pop-up installscape classic view interface, local directory/media install
/home/usr/eda/tmp/IC06.16.005_lnx86.Base/CDROM1
c) Software post configuration after the installing completed
need to change all the packages to usr auth.
sudo chown usr ./*
sudo chgrp usr ./*
for tar in Base_MMSIM14.10.138_lnx86_*of4.tar;do tar xvf $tar;done
b) Uncompress the IScape04.20-p001lnx86.t.Z in the CDROM1 and run the iscape.sh
zcat PKGNAME | tar -xvf -
cd /home/usr/eda/tmp/mmsim12/MMSIM12.10.272_lnx86.Base/CDROM1/iscape/bin
./iscape.sh
c) Install library setup in the classic view interface
local directory/media install, then select location of media of mmsim
/home/usr/eda/tmp/mmsim12/MMSIM12.10.272_lnx86.Base/CDROM1
b)install necessary packages for patch
sudo yum install libstdc++.so.6
sudo yum install compat-libstdc++-33.i686
sudo ./cadence_patch.sh /home/usr/eda/app/cadence/IC617
sudo ./cadence_patch.sh /home/usr/eda/app/cadence/MMSIM151
some useful book and design demo in the following link:

PDK Installation
1. Download the NCSU Cadence Design Kit (CDK) version 1.6.0 beta from
http://www.eda.ncsu.edu/wiki/NCSU_CDK
2. To install the NCSU CDK:
Extract the contents of ncsu-cdk-1.6.0.beta.tar.gz into your home directory, add following lines to
bashrc file
Note that only one CDK_DIR directory can be exported (not to be confused with CDS_DIR)
you can use my bashrc file
- customize the toolbar needed
- save the workspace in the window->workspace->save as select the IC61X install directory
- save the workspace as default using the window->workspace->as default
b) If want to set the schematic editor background to white coulor, run the following cmd
$echo "Opus.editorBackground: white" | xrdb -merge
$echo "Opus.editorBackground: black" | xrdb -merge
c) Change font/size for IC617 by CIW command
hiSetFont( "label" ?size 12 )
hiSetFont( "ciw" ?size 12 )
Above command for IC617
d) Add instance in the sch editor in two way options->editor->add instance browser type
-library
-component
e) Virtuoso Schematic Editor
change bindkey F scale
CIW-> Options->bindkeys->Schematics-> change F function to schZoomFit(1.0 0.6) from
schZoomFit(1.0 0.9)
change button zoomtofit
CIW->Options->toolbars->Schematic Editor->zoomto fit call back change to schZoomFit(1.0 0.6)
