It's in the CDL of the standard cells for instance.

@tnt

ng

- number of gates,

nf

- number of fingers and it is supposed to be the same. When you create a mosfet instance you should use

ng

, although it will bind to the PSP model which uses

nf

Ok thanks, it was for LVS matching purpose, so I think I can also add it to the "ignore" list like

nf

is. ( It's not extracted by klayout so the lack of it was causing a mismatch ).

as far as I remember number of gates should be considered in LVS

It'd definitely not now AFAICT. The final W/L will be compared but not how it was divided.

And here I'm trying to use klayout to extract a netlist and then

netgen

to do the actual LVS (because klayout doesn't finish, it's been running for 2hours ...)

thank you @Farag Elsayed

👌 Yup thanks.
