How to read label inside a particular instance and check its connectivity with the label of another instance

Garima M

Say, there are 2 instances with their terminals connected together using metal routing. There are labels placed over terminals in metal layer. Eg: "G" on GATE terminal, but there is no pin  over the terminals.
I want to read labels over those two connected terminals with their instance names & dump into a file.

Eg:   I1(Instance)  "G"(Label)  connected to I2(Instance)  "D"(Label)

I am new to assura, so I am looking for a code to implement above logic using assura. Please help with the same.

    Hi Garima,

    To be very clear , you are searching for a command or algorithm in ASSURA RULE WRITING to find whether 2 pins(not exactly pins,only the labels are placed over the routing layer) are connected not?

    You can find the direct command in ASSURA RULE WRITING to trace the connectivity for a label, but am not sure if there is any command or algorithm to find the connection between two labels with routing layer.

    If anyone can help, it will be very helpful for me too.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Amar
