| The SkyWater SKY130 PDK provides automated physical and design rule checking decks. |
| |
| These verification rules provide; |
| |
| * :term:`Design Rule Checking` (:term:`DRC`) against rules described in the |
| :ref:`SkyWater SKY130 Process Design Rules` documentation. |
| |
| .. warning:: |
| |
| There are some design rules which can not be verified with these decks. |
| They are clearly marked in the :ref:`SkyWater SKY130 Process Design Rules` |
| documentation and should be manually verified by the designer. |
| |
| * :term:`Layout Verse Schematic` (:term`LVS`) Verification |
| * :term:`Parasitic Extraction` (:term:`PEX`) |
| |
| To enable this verification to be done in a number of tools, these rules are |
| provided in two formats. |
| |
| Calibre Decks |
| ------------- |
| |
| The "Calibre Decks" are files suitable for :term:`Mentor's Calibre` product |
| suite. |
| |
| They have been tested by :term:`SkyWater` with Calibre XXXXX and used with |
| numerous production designs. |
| |
| These files are also used by :term:`SkyWater` as part of the design |
| verification and sign off process when doing manufacturing with the foundry. |
| |
| |
| These files can also be used with the open source tool :term:`Klayout`. Correct |
| operation with :term:`Klayout` has not been verified. |
| |
| MAGIC Decks |
| ----------- |
| |
| The "MAGIC Decks" are files suitable for the open source tool :term:`MAGIC`. |
| |
| The "MAGIC Decks" have currently being tested by :term:`eFabless` with MAGIC |
| XXXX and are currently being qualified for production usage. |
