Get pcell parameters with skill

RVERP
RVERP over 2 years ago

I have defined a pcell with pcDefineParameters and add cdf to it. Now I'm looking for a way to get the pcell parameters (not the cdf), their name, datatype and default value. 

All the info I can find is related to the cdf parameters, but there must be a way to get the pc parameters I assume.

    cv=dbOpenCellViewByType("gpdk090" "nmos1v" "layout")
    foreach(mapcar param cv~>parameters~>value list(param~>name param~>valueType param~>value)

    This will open the PCell superMaster (of course, change the lib/cell/view to your needs) and then give a list of lists of the name, valueType and default value of each parameter.
