Scripts or commands to create the package stackup

sidm
sidm over 5 years ago

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

    thanks for the reply. The news vias that i created are visible in the via list inside CM but not when I am trying to add them  during routing.

    Also seems there has been some issue as I am getting the below message when opening the design "

    (SPMHA1-161): Cannot open the design because of database problems. Run the dbdoctor command on the design and try to open again.

    did u assign the padstack that can be used from which layer to which layer?

    if not, u need to assign it on the constraint manager.
