How to see parents cell of a layout ?

94d33m

In Tanner EDA tool there was a simple 'Parents' options in the library navigator, to see if my current layout has been used in another layout. But in cadence I think it gets a little complicated. I tried using the shift + T (Tree) and used the options...It just shows me what instances are inside my current layout, but what I want to see is in which other layouts my current layout has been instantiated.

  • This doesn't exist as a built-in, mainly because it would involve having to search the entire universe (at least all the designs in all the libraries you have in your cds.lib), which would be rather expensive (except in the simple case where you have a small number of cells or libraries).

    It could be implemented in SKILL, of course.
