how to re-evaluate the pcell submaster

phenixgj

I use  IC613 and openaccess database. Is there any skill command to update/refresh the pcell submaster?

Thanks.

  • Why do you need to reevaluate it? Pcell evaluation is triggered by a change of parameters which results in a new variant (submaster) being required. Also, redefinition of the pcell supermaster will also re-trigger the recreation of all variants in use.

    If  you purge the supermaster, that would also cause them to be reevaluated. However, normally this should not be needed. The danger is if you have a pcell which depends on dynamic data outside of the parameters - if you're doing that, then that is bad design of the pcell.

    Perhaps if you can explain why you need this, it would help understand your requirements.
