關於cell-based 流程的DRC問題

ywchywch

請問各位大大
我用TSMC18的design kit作cell-based layout的練習，軟體是用encounter，大部分的步驟是依照CIC所提供的Lab去做，完成之後用我的GDS檔去做DRC，會出現下列的DRC ERROR，而且是M1~M5、via1~via5都會有這方面的error，因為error的數目頗大，不太可能用人工去debug，所以我想請問有經驗的大大們，能不能告訴我最大的問題點在哪裡？以及這些錯誤代表什麼？要如何debug比較適合？

先謝謝各位大大了!!感激不盡!!

我猜你試用APR軟體RUN出來ㄉ
應該是相同NET ㄉMetal space 和 via extension

我覺得你打電話去CIC問工程師會比較快吧 ...
