Every software package contains a full set of examples suitable for that version and are installed with the software. If you see examples here that are not in your installation you should consider updating to a later version of the software. These examples can be used by beginners and advanced users for product evaluation, teaching purposes, and self-training.

Victory RCx
This example is based upon an EXNOR custom cell layout and illustrates how VictoryRCx may be used to extract the full parasitic netlist from a complete cell.
Beginning from the process description, a 3-dimensional structure is created from which the resistance and capacitance are extracted using a field solver. The Adapt parameter on the Interconnect statement is used to specify the accuracy required by the field solver. The values of 0.1 and 0.05 require an accuracy of 10+ACU- and 5+ACU- respectively.
Once the netlist is extracted it may be used in a SPICE input deck to analyse the influence of cell parasitics on circuit performance. When this example is loaded support files that may be run in SmartSpice to show the circuit behaviour will also be loaded.
This example has been described within the VictoryRCx tutorial in the manual. For further information on this example please read the VictoryRCx tutorial chapter.
