How to place pins inside of the edge in Innovus

Archon2019

Hi,

I am doing layout for a mixed-signal circuit in Innovus. I want to create a digital donut style of layout (i.e. put analog circuit in the middle, and circle analog part with digital circuits).

To do that, I need to place some pins inside the edge to connect to analog circuit (as shown in my attachment), but the problems is that I cannot place pins inside the edge by using "pin editor" within Innovus. Any suggestions to place pins inside?

Thank you so much for your time and effort.

  • Not sure what you mean by 'inside' the pins are always on the inside of a 'block'.  You can specify offsets for pins in X and/or Y distances....I tried a dbget followed by a dbset however there are object types that do not allow dbset to change parameters. Hope this helped a little.
