The LEF import error you got told you that there was an unknown layer in the LEF file. Assuming you gave it TSMC LEF, then it refers to layers unknown to Electric (at least until you define a TSMC technology).

As far as the XML file goes, you are confused by the extension. The XML file you got from TSMC is completely different from the "technology XML" files used by Electric. The Technology Wizard asks you questions about the design rules. Answer them and it will give you technology XML file.

Good Morning,
I have the TSMC design kit for the 180nm technology composed by library (*.lef), gds file (*.map) and technology file (*.tf) all for cadence tool. I want load the foundry information for my design but I donâ EURO (tm)t succeed to do it. I could know as load this information in electric.

If I try to import the *.lef file in electric it return me the following message:

â EURO oeImporting '/D:/Università /Dottorato%20di%20Ricerca/Tecnologie/TSMC/vtvt_tsmc180_release_2/vtvt_tsmc180_lef/vtvt_tsmc180_lef/vtvt_tsmc180.lef' Error: didn't find in initialize a layer to match 'CC' Line 172: No layer 'cc' defined for RECT Error importing /D:/Università /Dottorato%20di%20Ricerca/Tecnologie/TSMC/vtvt_tsmc180_release_2/vtvt_tsmc180_lef/vtvt_tsmc180_lef/vtvt_tsmc180.lef as LEF format. Job 'Import External Library' failedâ EURO If I try use the technology wizard, create the xml file and import it; electric return me the following message:
