extract specified layout net 5141 (Assura & pvs)

stuso

Hi all,

In days gone by i used a Skill function that could take a Diva
extracted view and create a new layout/extracted view with only the
metal,poly,via & contact of pre-selected net(s) remaining i.e all
other polygons were stripped away.

For example, you may wish to see a layout only with GND in it, so you
can review it's electromgration or weak points.

Is there something similar kicking about for Assura or PVS...or
perhaps
even 5141 has such a function hidden away? The "mark net" function is
close to what i want, but not quite.

Thanks

Stu

  • Hi Stu,

    Are there parasitic resistances on the net? (That makes it harder - not that hard, but it's trivial if there are no parasitic resistors as everything is on the same net, otherwise I assume you'd want to trace through the parasitic resistances).

    How would you expect to specify the net(s) - just select one or more shape or via on the net?

    Is this for IC5141 or IC61 (the way vias are handled on nets is simpler in IC61).

    I don't think it really matters whether it was Diva or Assura or PVS (presumably QRC in the latter two) - the structure of the view will be the same.

    Regards,
