How to create multiple vias automatically

MariaOtz

Hello everyone,

I just started to program with SKILL because I am trying to make my layout more automatic; but so I am not very good at it yet.

My idea is to make a procedure for the layout that will help me to create a rectangle of vias. I would like to draw a rectangle in the layout and with the procedure, automatically the area will be fill with the desired vias (VIA1, VIA2...) following the design rules.

It would be nice if somebody can advice me on this.

Thank you very much in advance

  •  Quek,

    I suspect Maria is talking about the "Auto" mode of the standard (not turbo) Create Contact command in IC5141 (it's been there for as long as I can remember). This does indeed only work with paths (which are a wise thing to use for routing), compared with the "auto" mode for Create Via in IC61X which works with polygons too.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
