Introduction In modern power devices, the total power loss comprises both a conductive power loss component and a capacitive loss component. As the cell pitch decreases, the conductive loss will decrease while the capacitive loss will increase. Therefore, for small cell pitch the capacitive power loss may be the dominant component of the total power loss in the device.

Expert features a powerful Netlist Driven Layout (NDL) function to assist the user in creating a layout. It increases the productivity of layout design by automating cell generation and providing visual cues to assist in the wiring process. In this example, a latch circuit layout will be built based on developed child cells.

Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) are attracting great interest in the display technology industry due to their promising low cost large area manufacturing and relative ease of fabrication using low processing temperatures. Although the research work of OLEDs has began since early 1980 and has been well established, there is still no commercially available software that can simulate the electrical and optical behavior of these organic polymer/monomer based devices. As such, Silvaco-ATLAS has recently extended its capability to simulate these devices using a variety of appropriate organic polymer/monomer models.
