Convert netlists in other formats (e.g. LEF/DEF or Bookshelf) to netlist in protocol buffer format
Convert netlists in other formats (e.g. LEF/DEF or Bookshelf) to netlist in protocol buffer format
We implemented three different types of versions based on OpenDB.
We implemented three different types of conversions based on OpenDB.
***LEF/DEF -> Protocol Buffer Format** : In this conversion, users need to provide the def file and corresponding lefs. Here is [an example](https://github.com/TILOS-AI-Institute/MacroPlacement/blob/main/CodeElements/FormatTranslators/test/LefDef2ProtocolBufferFormat/test2.py).

***Bookshelf -> Protocol Buffer Format** : In this conversion, users can directly convert netlist in Bookshelf format to corresponding netlist in protocol buffer format. Here is [an example](https://github.com/TILOS-AI-Institute/MacroPlacement/blob/main/CodeElements/FormatTranslators/test/Bookshelf2ProtocolBufferFormat/test1.py).
