System and method for automatic generation of device-based design rules and corresponding design rule checking (drc) codes

A method comprising:

• accessing, by a processor from memory, information comprising at least:
• a list of definitions for different devices, and a table of related data associated with the different devices;
• based on the related data in the table, generating, by the processor, device-based design rules associated with specific devices of the different devices;
• and
• based on specific definitions in the list and corresponding to the specific devices and further based on the device-based design rules, generating, by the processor, device-based design rule checking codes associated with the specific devices.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the program instructions are executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method, and wherein the method comprises:

• accessing information comprising at least:
• a list of definitions for different devices, and a table of related data associated with the different devices;
• based on the related data in the table, generating device-based design rules associated with specific devices of the different devices;
• and
• based on specific definitions in the list and corresponding to the specific devices and further based on the device-based design rules, generating design rule checking codes associated with the specific devices.
