Nice. You created two separate ports for the pad and the core connection, right?

I'm just wondering if this should be a bug report for OpenROAD, since those files came from GF and the proprietary tools can probably handle it?

The LEF also has slightly problematic coordinates for the ASIG5V port rects.

I re-exported the LEF from magic after removing some weird and seemingly broken port defs from the mag file.

Do a diff between my LEF and the one that comes with the PDK and you’ll see what I mean.
