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

    Well, I suppose you could create an NDR of the width you want and with the double-cut vias you want, and make all the nets use the NDR. You'll just have to try it and see what happens. If Nanoroute ends up using min-width wire in places, then it's doing so to avoid a DRC, which you would want.
