Param section of Instantiated Pcell!

Messi

Hi,

   I writting SKILL code to instantitate a pcell into another cellview.The code i have posted in my previous posts.I am able to instantiate the master pcell into my cellviews based on conditions i needed,but problem i face is in the paramter section.

In the master pcell i have 15 parameters passed in the formal argument section.While i instantiate this pcell using dbCreateParamInst inside the list( list( {i pass only 3 parameters} ie

    dbCreateParamInst(
       cvd mastercv i list(0 0) "R0" 1
  list(list(  "width"      "float"      atof(nth(2 ruleTable[i])))
       list( "layer1"   "string"   nth(0 ruleTable[i]))
       list( "TYPE"     "string"   nth(1 ruleTable[i]))))
    )

But i find that the new cellviews with the instants of mastercv has 15 parameters whereas i need only 3.

How can make so??Hope you got my problem!

Thanks,

Messi

  • Hi Messi,

    The number of parameters is defined by how the pcell is defined. Any parameters not passed will pick up the pcell default. If you look at inst~>prop~>?? you should only see the three parameters you specified in the call - so what leads you to believe there are 15?
