Hello All,
I have question in regards to using probes in calibre PEX extraction. I have a pdk with multiple programmable metal options.
In one version of the chip I have 7M and in the second 8m. In both work areas the extraction tools is extracting the parasitics correctly on all metals.
However in the GUI there is an option to set probes by clicking in the layout to pick the XY co-ordinates and then there is a drop-down in the gui to select the metal layer for that probe. In both the work areas in the probe metal layer list i do not get an option to pick the top metal!!
I have a work around which involves creating a text file with the probes and using it in the extraction, but I am hoping someone here can help me solve this so I can just use the GUI. Thanks.
