Import GDS (from Cadence) into 3D Layout Using .ircx and .map #5761
-
To whom it may concern, Is there a PyAEDT function that can import a .gds into 3D Layout using a .ircx and .map file? I can do this manually by importing a gds and setting the .ircx file (from my foundry) to the technology file and by providing a layer map through the GUI. However, the existing import_gds() function in PyAEDT does not have the ability to accept a .ircx and .map together. Am I missing something here? Or is PyAEDT simply lacking this functionality at this time? Thanks. |

Hi @jzho2638,
if you are dealing with layout design, you should probably use PyEDB which is installed and accessible natively in PyAEDT.
EDB based workflow will be faster and more efficient for IC automation. EDB can be ready to solve and directly imported in HFSS (even in batch non graphically).
Please have a look at this:

If you have question related to PyEDB you can also submit issues and question on our GitHub

Thanks for contacting us.
