Question on Schematic Porting from X-Foundry PDK to Y-Foundry PDK

yjwu

Hi,

I am trying to make a schematic conversion from X-Foundry PDK to Y-Foundry PDK.

I found the skill codes "abConvertComponentParams" by Andrew very helpful.

However, I have two questions below that would need some quidences:

(1) How to remove unwanted CDF properties in the original symbol of X-Foundry?

     After the skill code conversion, some CDF properties become user properties in the new symbol.

     Those proporties are specific to X-Foundry and it would be better to remove them during the conversion.

     Specifically, it would be even better to just map the parameters specified in "conv.config" only and remove all other parameters. 

(2) How to map a parameter type of "string" to type "integer"?

     The example fixIt procedure seemed to return a string and caused the following warning message:

      *WARNING* Invalid type (string) for property 'segments' on instance 'R1'

Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Ethan

    aelSuffixNotation(2e-5);=> "20u"
    pcFix(cdfParseFloatString("3.14k"));=> 3140
    pcFix(cdfParseFloatString("3.14u"));=> 0  humm..
    evalstring("3.14u");=> 3.14e-06
