PAD connections in Encounter

Hello everyone,

I have manually modified synthesized RTL to include pad cells and their connections, then, fed them to Encounter v6.2 for place and route. After place and route, I realized vdd and gnd net are not connected to any pin.

I am wondering if I have to remove pad cells from input RTL.

Also, other IOs are connected to the associated pads by a metal layer that has the minimum width. What is the best way to define width of metal layer for connecting to the pads.

Thanks,

Ali

Eric,
I'm not great with verilog, so it's hard for me to tell, but maybe you're missing the LEF of the ICP macro?
