leHiCreateVia via list

psill00

When I used leHiCreateVia I would like to exclude a via from the via list in a group

Example

V1 list = '("V1" "V1bar" "V1peri" "V1Lrg")

I want to exclude V1peri from the list.

Is there variable or option on the via option menu or a variable needed

    I see where I can set the default vias in the constraint, but I want to set a list of vias the use for a metal pairing ( Ex: M1 to M2 )

    viaSetDefaultCutClasses - this set one via cut class not a list of vias to use for the bottom metal and top metal for a via

    I there another constraint function that sets a list of vias to use for each metal pairing?

    Paul,

    As I mentioned, you'd do this with a validVias constraint:

    interconnect(
      ( validLayers (Poly Metal1 Metal2 Metal3 Metal4 Metal5 Metal6 Metal7 Metal8 Metal9 Metal10 Metal11 ) )
      ( validVias (M1_PO M1_NWELL M1_PSUB M1_NIMP M1_PIMP M1_DIFF M2_M1 M3_M2 M4_M3 M5_M4 M6_M5 M7_M6 M8_M7 M9_M8 M10_M9 M11_M10 ) )
      ) ;interconnect

    The validVias can contain multiple vias between the same layers - the via definition itself defines which layers the via goes between. Just list all the vias between each pair of layers that you want to be available.
