Hello,

 In my design, i use different types of cells (2 libraries). One uses gnd as ground and the other vss. Is it possible in Encounter to connect these different types of pins and how ? Now, i only success to connect VDD and that's all.

Thanks in advance

     Hi,

    This case is not unusual. A lot of times the ground pins of std cells will be called one thing, and the ground pins of rams another, etc. You should be able to do something like this:

        globalNetConnect VSS -type pgpin -pin vss 
        globalNetConnect VSS -type pgpin -pin gnd 

    Please check out the globalNetConnect documentation to see if your particular case needs any other options, but this should get you started.
