One schematic for multiple layouts

M202602061138

Hi

What is the best way to handle multiple layouts of different aspect ratios using the same schematic when using LayoutXL?

We don't really want to duplicate the same schematic multiple times, but we do want layout XL to pass through the correct chosen aspect ratio and to maintain that layout when you do an update components and nets.

eg: circuit1 is used in 3 different locations with different shape/size areas available so requires 3 different layouts, layout_A, layout_B & layout_C 

Would it be best to make it a pcell with Callback and CDF Parameters or use physConfig or another method?

Regards

Mike V.

    I don't understand what the issue is here, you might need to be more specific. You can create multiple layout views within a cell and then using a physConfig view to specify the layout you want for each instance.
