pdkmaster.technology.property_

class pdkmaster.technology.property_.Enclosure(spec: float | Iterable[float])[source]

Bases: object

Enclosure object are representing the enclosure value of one layer over another layer. Most of the time it is used to indicae the minimum required enclosure of one layer over another layer.

Enclosure constraints can symmetric or asymmetric. A symmetric enclosure can be specified with a single float value, an assymetric one with two float values. Internally always two float values are stored and be accessed through the spec attribute of an Enclosure object. For a symmetric object the two float values are the same.

When an enclosure is used as a constraint symmetric means that the enclosure has to be met in all directions. Asymmetric normally means that a smaller enclosure in one direction is allowed when both enclosures in the other direction are bigger than the bigger enclosure value. For this case the order of the two value don’t have a meaning.

An enclosure can also be used to specify when doing layout generation. The PDKMaster convention here is that the order has a meaning; the first value is for the horizontal direction and the second value for the vertical one. Also giving meaning to the wide() and tall() object methods

Enclosure objects are implemented as immutable objects.

A Technology object is the representation of a semiconductor process. It’s mainly a list of _Primitive objects with these primitives describing the capabilities of the technolgy.

the Technology class is an abstract base class so subclasses need to implement some of the abstract methods defined in this base class.

Subclasses need to overload the __init__() method and call the parent’s __init__() with the list of the primitives for this technology. After this list has been passed to the super class’s __init__() it is final and will be frozen.

Next to the __init__() abstract method subclasses also need to define some abstract properties to define some properties of the technology. These are name(), grid().
