Cmos Ic Layout PDF Download

"Physical Design of CMOS Integrated Circuits Using L-Edit is the first book/software package that enables engineering students and professionals to perform full IC layout on an inexpensive personal computer. The Student Version of L-Edit, included with the book on a 3.5-inch disk, is a full-featured layout editor that runs on MS-DOS compatible computers with minimal hardware requirements (640K RAM, a mouse, and an EGA or better color monitor). L-Edit allows the user to implement the physical design of an integrated circuit at the silicon level, and provides output for circuit simulation on SPICE. The entire process of chip design - once the exclusive province of workstation-based CAD systems - can now be performed on a PC." "Database files for many standard MOSIS CMOS processes are provided on disk, including Orbit and HP 2.0 and 1.2-micron technology base definitions. The program provides for circuit extraction (translating the layout to a SPICE-compatible text file), and design rule checking using predefined MOSIS rules or custom-designed sets. It also features a unique cross-sectional viewer that constructs the side view layering from the layoutthis viewer helps users visualize the link between layout drawings and the device structure. Circuit designs created on the Student Version of L-Edit can be translated to GDS II or CIF format for submission to a fabrication foundry using the Professional Version of L-Edit."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
