Copy 2 schematics to a new cellView with offset to avoid collision - keeping all the interface

Yudi

Hi,

How do I copy 2 schematics to a new cellView, with offset between them to avoid collision, and keep all the instances connectivities, nets and the pins.

Of course if the instance name already exist then change its name (add prefix or postfix...), same pin names, of course, could be as much as I want....

I have done it, but the dbCopyFig() is not doing a good job - the instances interface are not correct...

And when I'm using schHiCopy() is doing it properly!!!, but I need to use the mouse, and my skill should be automaticlly....

Thank You in advance, Yudi (Yehuda) Marton (Intel) 

 

 

 

  • Hi Yudi,

    Not sure why using dbCopyFig would not be sufficient - obviously you'll need to do an schCheck afterwards to ensure connectivity is extracted. Can you give some details as to what exactly the problem is?

    Regards,

    Andrew

  • Dear Andrew,

    I have solved the problem , and all is working fine, pins I’m not copying and I’m recreate them like the following

                                            pNet   = dbMakeNet(ncv netName)

                                            pTerm  = dbCreateTerm( pNet netName direction )

                                            nShape = schCreatePin( ncv master netName direction nil XY orient )

    Thank You, Yudi (Yehuda) Marton
