Dear Ronald,
I hope this is the correct thread. I have a gds with sub-cells and I want to add structures coded in nazca inside some subcells. So let’s say the gds has a tree like this:
- top_cell
- sub_cell
- Device
- sub_cell
whereas my coded cell is ‘Nazca_device’.
I want to add an instance of ‘Device’ in ‘Nazca_device’. I use:
Import_gds = load_gds(filename=’top_cell’, asdict=True, topcellsonly=False)
Import_gds[‘top_cell’].put()
cell_top = ‘top_cell’
to have the full tree. By using the script you wrote in #6612, I can locate the position of ‘org pointer’ of ‘Device’ respect the top cell ‘top_cell’.
for params in nd.cell_iter(cell_top):
if params.cell_start: # check if we are on a cell_open pass (or check for a cell_close).
if params.cell.cell_name == “Device”: # check if we are in the right cell
pointer, flip = params.transflip_glob # get cell’s translation (pointer) and flip w.r.t. cell_top
for name, pin in params.cell.pin.items(): # print all pin names and locations
print(name, pointer.copy().move_ptr(pin.pointer)) # add pin position in the cell to the cell translation.
But I’d like instead to add pins to the cell ‘Device’ and then put an instance of ‘Nazca_device’ in ‘Device’. How can I do that?
thank you
Kind regards,
Lorenzo
