Reply To: Inserting Cell in pre-existent .gds layout

[Xaveer]

Dear killian.keller,

This should be straightforward. Suppose your template file (containing the Wafer layout etc.) is called template.gds and your design is called user.gds with top cell name “my_design”, then the following Nazca program should do the trick:

import nazca as nd

scellmap = {“user.gds”: {“user_design”: “my_design”}}
nd.replaceCells(gdsin=”template.gds”, ScellMapping=scellmap)

If needed, you can replace multiple cells in the template with cells from
different user designs, by extending the scellmap dictionary.
