Electric's default DRC rule set does not have Silicide-Block rules. As an
experiment, in order to check MOSIS rule:
20.3 Minimum spacing, SB to contact (no contacts allowed inside SB)
2
I added the following line to the Electric DRC rule deck:
<LayersRule ruleName="20.3 Mosis" layerNames="{Silicide-Block,Poly-Cut}"
type="SPACING" when="ALL" value="2.0"/>
Now of I run DRC I get the following flag:
- [2] Spacing: node Metal-1-Polysilicon-1-Con['contact@0'], layer
'Poly-Cut' OVERLAPS (BY 2.5) node Silicide-Block-Node['plnode@0'], layer
'Silicide-Block' [rule '20.3 Mosis']
To add the rule to Electric's DRC deck, I first did Tools->DRC->Export DRC
Deck
In the resultant XML file add the <layerRule line from above and then do
Tools->DRC->Import DRC Deck and then run DRC.
Regarding your issue about converting TSMC rules to Electric, that might be
a challenge. Your TSMC rule deck might be in Assura or Calibre and I don't
believe there is an easy way to translate this to the XML format that
Electric uses, unless there is a translator available.
