| + | In Design Framework II, your project consists of a library containing the cells used by your circuit. Your cells can also contain components from other libraries. Each cell can have different views (schematic, symbol, etc), accordingly to their purpose. The library Manager can be used to select cells, copy, delete, rename, etc. | ||
| The cds.lib file becomes important if you want access to additional technologies that are not part of the default Cadence installation. A technology is a collection of device parameters, models, and fabrication data that is available to Cadence for use in designs. Using the default library list is fine, but if you need access to additional technologies, you will need to manually add them to the cds.lib file. | The cds.lib file becomes important if you want access to additional technologies that are not part of the default Cadence installation.
