Skill code to add instance

Yassin
Yassin over 16 years ago

Hi,

I want a skill code to add an instance in a schematic sheet.

I tried the following code but it hasn't worked

procedure(
abc(component)
schHiCreateInst("tsmcN90" component "symbol" "I0" 1 1)
mouseAddPt()
0:0
)

then i call this function using:
abc("nch")

I am new to skill so i expect that there are much better ways to do that.

by the way, what does Hi stands for in the word schHiCreateInst??

Regards,
Yassin

    Hello everyones,

       My question is the same but is related to the layout.

       How can I place an instance in specific coordinates and aslo to change its parameter like W and L. Is there some function with argument the [postitions] and [parameters] ?

       For example I want to place an instance with W=3.18u and L=2.22u to coordinates 0.25:5.35  

       Regards,

            Nikolay
