Using a specified minimum wire width

Medya
Medya over 9 years ago

Hi everyone,

Is there any way to make Nanoroute use a minimum wire width? for example using of 0.15 instead of 0.1 um in MX. I tried NON DEFAULT RULE with the provided lef file from the foundry,  however seems it is not affecting all wires and even in one wire it just changes some segment's width based on space and room  availability and DRC violation. 

Best Regards,

Medya

    Hi Kari,

    Thanks for the reply,

    Actually my design is not that large its a small digital controller (contains around 3K std cells) for a large mainly analog/rf circuit. So I've been asked to not use of minimum width as well as single cut vias in this design because of possible manufacturing issues(DFM). So is it possible to route the whole design with a non minimum value and How can I do that?

    Best Regards,
