what do i need for auto-routing of analog circuit ???

are ic5141, icc11241 and pdk enough ???
if not , what else do i need ???

thank you !

do you mean auto-routing like digital layout?

As I understand ic5141, icc11241 and pdk should be enough.
But your schematic should be designed using PDK libraries.
I was going to use auto routing but I give up this idea during design stage. It is very unconvenient to optimize circuit that was designed using PDK library.

yes.

thank you.
but why it's inconvenient ???
and does this mean now you do your design only using .scs file ???

I don't remember in full details.
It was impossible to put resistor value as variable and sweep that as a parameter during simulation. The resistor value should be a fixed number not variable.

thank you for your reply, Fom.
can we use the resistor from ananloglib to solve this problem ???

u c , i do want to have a auto-routing instead of manully layout , for it can save some time i think.

You can try, but the CDF paremeters set of PDK resistorcan be different from analogLib. I have to change every resistor value manually.
And I am not sure it is the only truble.

thank you Fom.
what are you do when you design ???
you pick up the MOS or inductor or the other components from analoglib ???
and then use the .scs files for MOS , and you draw your circuit manually in layout editor, right ? how about the inductor ?
the inductors are difficult to draw, aren't they ?
