siepic.extend.find_components function, subcells

Open lukasc-ubc opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Limitation of this function:

  • it requires that the DevRec and PinRec shapes be in the highest level of the component's hierarchy. In the example below, the component was embedded inside another top cell with a different name. find_components does not find it, and connecting waveguides / components via script doesn't work.
  • considering adding "raise Exception", as this should only occur in coded layouts.

PDK developers should be aware of this limitation. Update documentation.
