Cadence Encounter

Hello,

Is there a way to extract the placement information of the gates (like in X Y coordinates)in soc Encounter?

I would use this information to know the neighboring pair of gates throughout my design.

Thankyou.

    Do you mean the actual transistor gate? Or the std cell, like an AND4X or something like that?

    Thank you for the reply.

    I want to find out the location of the actual transistor gate. I was able to extract the location of std cell through the .def file.

    Thank you.

    Hi Sowmith,

    I dont think it is possible to get the actual transistor gate location from Encounter/Innovus. We only use abstract views of standard cells for place and route.

    Regards,
