How to set different views for the same cell in different instances?

zuiying

Hello! I am using hierarchy editor editing to perform post-layout simulation. There are two same cell but different instances, I0 and I11, in my schematic as shown below.

The cell ''my_SAR_logic_2'' include a cell ''count_cell1'' named I2.

Now, I want to set the view of count_cell1 in I0 shemetic and set the view of count_cell1 in I11 calibre.

But when I choose view in config editor, count_cell1 in I0 and I11 always keep the same view. When I change the view in I0 or I11, the other will change synchronously.

Is there any way to set different views for count_cell1 in I0 or I11? Thank you!

  • You will need to change to setting occurrence bindings rather than instance bindings. The default is instance bindings, which means that when you set a binding on a particular instance in a cell (from the tree view), it is set for that instance in the containing cellView - so everywhere the containing cellView is used, the same binding will occur (that's what you're seeing).

    To change to occurrence binding, press the indicated button at the top, and then the text will change at the top of the tree view to show it's in occurrence mode:

    Having done that, setting the binding on I2<1:12> within I0 will be specific to that hierarchical path, rather than on I2<1:12> in all occurrences of my_SAR_logic2.

    Regards,

    Andrew
