Package Design File Types

Cadence APD: generates .mcm formats
Cadence SIP : generates .sip formats

.sip files can be used to extract.gds/.sf files for silicon or gerber files for substrate.

SIP provides greater flexibility/functionality over APD, such in terms of netlist management, DRC's, 3D visualization, etc.
