SOC Encounter :: Layout Routing Issues

Sohaib Qazi

Hi

I am facing a problem with the layout generated by Encounter. I am unable to route the design properly. After setting up the Floorplan of the design when I place the Standard Cells, it also routes the metals and the metals are overlapped. Also it doesn't use the standard rules like using M1 Horizontal and M2 Vertical. I am not sure why it does so and how could I overcome this issue.

I am attaching a pic of the layout as well.

    It seems like the VIA definitions are not proper in your LEF. Are you using the same LEF as you got from the front end ?
