      "content": "@Jonah Saunders - There are some people who have apparently done it -- but it is not anything I have any real insight into. \n\nA few things to keep in mind:\n * (a) There is **no support** from wafer.space or GF for doing this.\n * (b) It doesn't matter what Cadence reports around DRCs and such, the only thing that matters is what https://platform.wafer.space reports.\n * (c) There is a proprietary PDK for GF180MCU -- if you have an existing NDA (& direct relationship with GF) then you ***might*** be able to get that. wafer.space will *not* provide access to this and you must also see (b) -- (IE It doesn't matter what the proprietary PDK might say, if platform.wafer.space doesn't report it as clean then it isn't clean). GF will also **not** respond to people requesting access to this PDK for wafer.space tape outs.\n * (d) wafer.space does not offer or support waivers.\n\nGenerally, if you have the money for a Cadence Virtuoso license, then you probably have money to use a different service which does support those tools. If you are getting a Cadence Virtuoso license for free, then it is likely you don't have the rights to use it for wafer.space tapeouts (if you read the terms and conditions as written).",
