Hi,
I wanted to see if perhaps any LSI/CAD people may be on the list that have
done work on IC layouts from back in the 80's. I have numerous 800BPI
9tracks that contain GDS binary streams on them.
I need a conversion app/util to pull the data off of the tapes and back into
GDS format.
I work with GDS every day in my real job. It's platform neutral, with
everything specified down to the byte ordering and alignment (16-bit).
Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to do, there's no
conversion required. Any CAD tool capable of reading GDS should
understand it.
Contact me offline if you want to talk more.
