Design, Automation and Test in Europe (DATE '00)
Stay Away from Minimum Design-Rule Values
Paris, France
March 27-March 30
ISBN: 0-7695-0537-6
With the introduction of 0.18 micron CMOS process technology a new phenomenon in circuit manufacturing can be observed: design-rule values as specified in the design-rule manual are no longer "hard" numbers. Where designers and EDA tool manufacturers used to consider rule-values as strict limits when creating mask layouts, rule values have turned into gray areas around the specified rule values.
