Die Text in Problem

archive
archive over 18 years ago

Hi,

When importing die information into APD using the die text in wizard, it automatically assigns an incremental subscript to the net name, when i have more than one pad with the same net name.. e.g if i have a number of VSS1 pins it changes them to VSS1_1, VSS1_2, etc.  It only does this with some nets (not all) and i'm not sure what is causing it... can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

    Great. Glad I could help, Gaz.

    Also, here is another option: I think the following env variable

    set textwiz_ignore_net_name_case = 1

    will get the DIE and BGA text-in tools to ignore case, so you don't have to edit your files. This variable is hidden (not in user preferences) because of the obvious impact. As you know, in the PCB/Packaging space, nets names are case insensitive (why the tool was adding the _1). In the IC/DIE space, they [i]are [/i] case sensitive, so we made the import case sensitive as well (error on the side of caution).

    Regards,

    Bill
