********************************************************************** ====================================================================== U.C. Berkeley Low-Power Cell Library ====================================================================== FOR CONDITIONS OF USE, PLEASE READ THE ACCOMPANYING COPYRIGHT FILE Overview: --------This library has been used in the development of over a dozen chips here at U.C. Berkeley as of Dec. 1994, so it has been through several rounds of beta testing already.
Since the library is naturally partioned by the type of cell, I have set up separate distributions for each partition:
1. TimLagerlp Array tiled cells. (e.g. sram, fifo, etc.) 2. dpplp Bitsliced cells for datapath construction. 3. stdcell2_3lp Standard Cell Library. 4. pads1_0clp 1.0um pads. 5. pads1_2clp 1.2um pads.PLEASE SEND BUG-REPORTS TO burd@eecs.berkeley.edu AND PREFIX THE SUBJECT LINE WITH "LPLIB BUG:" FOR EASIER ACCOUNTING.
PLEASE DO NOT DIRECT INQUIRES REGARDING HOW TO USE LAGERIV, POWERVIEW(TM), OR FRAMEMAKER(TM) TO MYSELF, BUT RATHER TO AN APPROPRIATE NEWS GROUP DISCUSSION.
====================================================================== Installation: ------------- 1. Untar the desired partitions in an installation directory (denoted as LPLIB) 2. To use with LagerIV, I have also included a "lager" file here to be used, that will function properly if the LPLIB environment variable is set. ====================================================================== Documentation: -------------2. Spice Files: I have included here the 1.2um and 1.0um spice files used for the timing. All delays are measured 50%-50%. The BSIM models for used and simulated with HSPICE (Trademark Meta Software).
