Net Tracing - Skill

archive
archive over 18 years ago

Hello All ,

I have a script which I use to calculate a particular net's  Net Length, total net resistance, Capacitance (w.r.t ground).
But the drawback is that I have to select the entire Net before invoking the "NetLength" Function.

So I want a script which can trace the entire net and give a list of metals, vias, instances that
belong to this net. i.e I will select any one metal/instance/via  of a net and the code should trace the entire net and give me the desired o/p.

NOTE: Instances here refer to instances/mosaics of vias.

Thanks,
Sathya

    I am also working in net tracing functionality, but facing problem with the command dbGetTrueOverlap..I need to find the resistance of net once u probe it. For this concern i need to trace the net so that i can extract all the metal layers and vias to get the total resistance.

     i need help on this....

    thnx
