Connecting multiple bits to same output bus in cadence schematic

roy83
Hi, I am building a digital system where i have to pass a bit of input-bus directly to the output bus, but cadence schematic composer gives an error when i try to do that. Error: Shorted terminals - memTerms "IN" & "A" thru signal "IN". Error: Shorted terminals - memTerms "A" & "IN" thru signal "IN". Is there a way to resolve this error . Thanks in Advance.

  • You may like to use a dummy device (a wire) to connect both pins. For example, cds_thru, which is  from the "basic" library that comes with Cadence schematic tool, may do the job very well.   Just double check to make sure you will be able to create the expected netlist from this type of schematic and also, it will not break your CAD flow (LVS check, especially).
