Skill code to assign Connectivity to Metals

Paramjeet

 Hi,

 

I am looking for a skill code with the help of which I can assign connectivity to all the metal and via layers connected to a AP layer. The AP layer has the connectivity information. I am looking for a generic code which asks for input metal layer having the connectivity information. Then it propogates or assigns same net connectivity  to all the other metal and via layers connected with the Net. This will help in getting all metal and via layers and not only AP layer during def out.

 

Please help me with the code.

 

Thanks & Regards

     Hi,

     Thanks a lot for your response & Sorry for the posting twice. 

    I do not have schematics and hence can't use the layout-XL features. I have drawn manually the metal connection from the bump to IO pad. Since to generate the def I need to have entire metal connectivity on all the layers, so as of now I manually have to select the metal lines and in the properties tab have to add manually the connectivity information. What I am looking for is some skill code which can assign the connectivity to all the connected metals taking information from one of the metail.

    Let me know how I can achieve the same.

    Thanks & Regards
