    I am not undergoing any training, but i am new to encounter tool And working on a Block level design using it without any external support.

    And these are issues which i dont get proper help from the Cadence documents. thats why i post my questions here

    1. Though i dont have any antenna violation, But still i have to insert diodes and buffers at the input pins for the block.

    2. i need to insert these spare cells for latter usage. these cells are not part of of the Design netlist. It is just for future usage.
