Can I put some pictures into virtuoso and use as logo?

Hi,

Is there any way to let Virtuoso input picture(like png, jpg format or
vector format) and output GDS format file? I was asked to use a
picture as logo in GDS.



Thanks

 

I don't know any way with Virtuoso, but some years ago I've written a tool
to create GDS files from pbm files (it uses an in-house tool that converts
text formatted GDS to binary GDS, so it's not ready to post). You could
probably use the same technique to create a skill script that places
rectangles where the pixels have been in the pbm file.

 

What do you mean by "use a picture as logo in GDS"?

We have a company logo which format is jpg, and our boss want this
logo appear on top metal layer.

 

This was discussed several times here. Just search thee group for "jpg":

Thanks, and p2m is too hard to be found, but I finally find it. Can I
upload it to this group?

 

Giving the link to it would be fair enough I would have thought ...

google for 'xchiplogo'. You'll get a CIF file so you'll need a CIF
in license probably.
