Analog Layouts: Why do we use METres and CUT layers?
We use lots of special layers and instances while we do layouts or circuit designs, but have no clear understanding of their importance. This session gives you clarity on the usage of METres instances and the CUT layers. We’ll explore when and why we use them, and provide real-time references for a better understanding. We use these things while working, but hardly pay attention to them. Understanding and working on them is the key to enhancing your knowledge and skills.
