Implement method of splitting substrate into local islands (using `DigiSub`)
In a typical IC design, different VSS nets are used in different areas for blocks requiring isolation (e.g., digital blocks vs. analog blocks), leading to p-taps shorting these VSS nets via the (common) substrate node if no measures are taken.
A common method is to split the substrate into local VSS islands using a marking layer to circumvent these problems.
In SG13G2 this marking layer is called DigiSub
. Please support this layer in LVS and PEX.
Hello @hpretl , could you please confirm that with the latest LVS update this enhancement is implemented?
Hi @sergeiandreyev I can check, but this will take quite a while.
