db command to get power pin co-ordinates for a given Macro

deeps

 Hi,

    I am trying to get the power pin co-ordinate details for a given Macro, 

        Is there a way by using db commands we can get the exact co-ordinate details of the power pins that are present on the Macro.I am using dbGet command to get the co-ordinate details of the macro location.

 

thanks

deepak.

    Deepak,

      You'll have to go through the macro instance's cell to get the details that you are looking for:

    set instPtr [dbGetInstByName MacroName]
    dbGet $instPtr.cell.pgTerms.pins.allShapes.shapes.rect
    dbGet $instPtr.cell.pgTerms.pins.allShapes.layer.name

       After that, you'll have to code up some translation scripts to put the cell coordinates into inst coordinates.
