skill code to generate pin list

SteveRFIC

Hi,

I have a cadence layout with lots of pins at different locations. I want to generate a list of the pins, ideally with the following information

pinname, location (X,Y coordinates), pin layer.

The pins are all in rectangular shapes, so ideally I want the locations of the center of those rectangulars.

Is this doable by using existing Layout or Layout XL commands, or by using skill?

I found some information to print a list of the labels from the following post, but could not get the file generated. nothing happens when I load the skill code :(

Sorry that I am a circuit designer and not very familiar with SKILL, any help is highly appreciated.

Thank you!

  • Thank you Sjoerd! I tried your code and it works fine.

    After comparison, I found that I forgot to close ( myPort). When I added this line after the fprintf function, then I got the file with printed pin list.

    Problem solved.

    Thank you Ramakrishnan and Sjoerd!
