I just used the automatically created layout of a ESD diode in cadence. I have to connect the diode between gate of a CMOS transistor and ground. But I don't know which layers I can use to connect them. Can anybody help?
I use the SG25 CMOS technology.

the one terminal connection to the gate of the device will be in metal1. If it is a P-diode the other terminal will connect to VDD , N-diode vice versa. The second connection will be through well(not with metal)Thus we can connect the two terminals of diode.
