Introduction

Arbitrary Cell Generator is a plugin to Berkeley Analog Generator 2.0 (BAG) that enables parametrized grid-free layout creation. The main goal of ACG is to make it easy to create highly customized layout generators that may not be possible in BAG due to its requirement to make layouts technology agnostic. In addition, we make it easy to combine legacy hand-drawn layouts and IP together with new layout generators.

NOTE: ACG is currently in development, and is being slowly cleaned up for open-source consumption, use at your own risk!
