The BSIM4 model provides a RF CMOS modeling capability. Prior to the BSIM4 model the RF modeling was accomplished by using macro models. The macro models were complex, contained many

It is well known that analyzing LVS reports is often a difficult and brain-teasing task because the "global" nature of connectivity. Unlike DRC reports, where geometrical violations are usually restricted

Antenna rules is a common name for rules that check ratios of amounts of material in two layers from the same node. They are used to limit the damage of

Expert API is intended for customizing and extending the existing software functionality by functions written by the users of Expert using C/C++.

A simple way to add custom commands to Expert's menu is implemented. It is possible to add menu items that execute xi-commands or procedures. To do this, you must put

We analyze quantitatively the real impact of technology on the needed level for carrier transport modeling. The results, based on theoretical analyses, are applied to existing devices. This work shows

Signals propagated in actual and future IC's interconnections are spreading, in terms of spectrum frequency, from DC to microwave domain because of the continually increasing clock frequencies of circuits. So,

The Gate-All-Around SOI transistor [1], in which the gate oxide and the gate electrode are wrapped around the semiconductor region between the source and drain electrodes, exhibits very attractive features

Installing and using Silvaco TCAD tools on a Windows 2000 Machine Introduction Silvaco software supports licensing on Windows NT (Serverice Pack 4. or later) and Windows 2000 Pro. As a

The Modella lateral PNP bipolar model was developed by Philips Electronics N.V. and first released to the public domain in 1990 [1,2]. A release of this model has been implemented

So far the BSIM3v3.2 MOSFET model, developed by UC-Berkeley, has been considered as the industry standard model for deep-submicron CMOS design. It was rapidly adopted by IC companies and foundries
