TSMC 90nm library spice deck

[Koustav]

Hello everybody,

I needed the spice netlists for the library cells in the TSMC 90nm
library. We had approached the cadence vendor for USF
but they said they only provide front end files, i.e., .lef
and .tlf(or
..lib) files, but no back-end files while includes the .sp files. Does
synopsys
provide this as well on request?

I was wondering if somebody could help me out in obtaining this. The
only
other option for me is to use spice files for 180nm OSU library and
scale it somehow...which will be tricky. Hand writing the spice files
for the library will be too time consuming and I am trying to avoid
that.

I would really appreciate any help on this.

Thanks,
Koustav

Have you contacted TSMC?

Hi qrk,

Thanx for ur response. Do you know anybody who asked TSMC any time
about their library spice decks? Do they respond? I heard vendors are
really reluctant in giving away these...

Thanks,

You will need to sign lots of legal papers to get their data. If you
are serious about running a project through TSMC, then contact them.
TSMC can't do business if they don't give out data.
