Scripts or commands to create the package stackup

Hi All,

are there any commands or scripts that can help to create package stack-up from scratch in an automated manner.

Something that can take in no. of conductor , dielectrics layers along with the thickness and material information and dump a tech file or mcm to be imported into SIP ?

I also wish to parametrize the package dimensions.

regards

    you can always import and export the cross section technology file from the cross secton editor.

    Thanks for the reply, how do you define a package on package structure using this cross section editor? Any doc or  example for this ?
    I think It doesn't allow to define soldermask layers more than once inside the editor. Suppose I need to define soldermask layers for both the package of the pop.

    on the cross section editor you can place solder as dielectric above "top" conductive layer and another solder as dielectric below the "bottom" conductve layer.

    i also define them on the padstack and soldermask_top and soldermask_bottom on the non conductive section of the stackup.
