Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products providing technology database independent pcells to be seamlessly customized and implemented in a yet unknown IC package library. In particular, the technology database independent pcells may have a code to execute callback functions to retrieve the package library name of the parent cells hosting the pcells. Based upon the library name, the pcell code may access the technology files stored in the technology database of the package library of the parent cells to retrieve the layer name, layer number, the design resolution, and/or other information such as design rule information of the parent cells hosting the pcells. Based on the layer number, the resolution, and/or other information the pcells can configure for themselves correct layout geometry without any input from a circuit designer.
