Q: I want to draw several long wires, with precise positioning of both ends. I am used to doing this as follows:

Maverick is a sophisticated full chip hierarchical netlist extractor [1]. It augments the existing CELEBRITY framework which includes state-of-the-art software for VLSI layout editing, hierarchical design rule checking and layout

In a previous issue of Simulation Standard for Process and Device Engineers[1] the simulation of a three stage CMOS ring oscillator using ATLAS/MixedMode was introduced. The MOSFETs used in the

There has been a significant increase in the popularity of liquid crystal displays with control circuitry being placed on to the glass (system on a panel). This has been made

ATHENA version 5.0 includes a new Binary Collision Algorithm (BCA) for accurate Monte-Carlo implant modeling down to sub-1keV energies. This new BCA code is a 3D model that takes account

A. The BSIM3_MG routine in SOI module of UTMOST III can be used to extract SOI model parameters. The SOI BSIM3_MG routine operation is similar to the one in MOS

The addition of important features in the latest version of SPAYN (1.7.3.R) makes it an even more useful and versatile statistical parameter and yield analysis tool. The list of spice

Users of the Cadence Design Framework II (DFII, versions 4.4.0 and above) have been enjoying a tight integration between SmartSpice and the Analog Artist Electrical Design System and Composer Design

The intrinsic capacitance parameter extraction routine (INTCAP) is in the CAP analysis section of the UTMOST III MOS module (Routine#67). The INTCAP routine has 5 different intrinsic cap measurements and

Q: I often use the temporary reference point, but I would like to see both absolute coordinates and relative coordinates, without toggling the reference point on and off.

This paper concerns the problem of determining optimal placement of rectangular blocks within a rectangular area known as the packing or cutting-stock problem. This problem arises at then floorplanning stage

Guardian is a (state-of-the-art) hierarchical netlist comparison system, which eliminates many of the disadvantages of existing programs. Running on PCs under Windows NT, it easily compares circuits with a large
