Running the Bitmap to Netlist Conversion


AutoCAD Operations

Now that our Photoshop processing has produced the correct monochrome bitmap image, we will start up AutoCAD, use the SmartDie pulldown and run the steps needed to get our die netlist:

  1. TIFF2GDS
  2. PAD Clean
  3. Die Clean

I've grey'd out all the functions we don't use -- they are only there because we built this application using the Smart Die platform and it has other operations we don't need or care about.
