    Hi Oysters;
     
    I don't have a doc. regarding the same.
     
    According to my knowledge  .io file is not used to add an IO instance, instead it's just used to arrange it around the core.
     
    You can add IO cells in your design  in two ways.  you add it in synthesized nelist or you can use virtuoso schematic editor for the purpose. For the second option you need to load your netlist to virtouso and generate  a schematic.then add io cells and regenerate netlist.
     
    for the first option you need to modify your netlist.
     
    You create a new top module and add IO cells ,corner cells  under the new one.
     
    Then import this to encounter. Just save the IO file and edit it to re arrange the IOs.
     
    Hope this helps.
