Pcell Creation

Hi All,

I am trying to create a pcell for nmos. I have added a stretchline in X-direction with name length,  saved and compiled to pcell.

While instantiating the pcell in another cell, I am able to see the form asking for length, But cannot see the physical transistor(nmos).

In CIW , I am getting an warning.

WARNING (DB: 270000) :  dbCreateExtParamInst : Invalid String Index.

 

I am using ICADV12.1 version of virtuoso tool.

Can anyone help me.

 

Thanks In Advance.

bsrin

    Debugging this is almost impossible without seeing the pcell. If you can't share it here (which I doubt, unless you can build one on a gpdk-based technology?), please contact customer support.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew.
