Design Guidelines towards Compact Litho-Friendly Regular cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
Integrated circuit design advances into the nanoscale era towards more compact, higher performance and lower power devices. However, the large number of transistors per die has entailed an increase of device variability due to subwavelength lithography and layout complexity impacting manufacturability. Therefore, regular designs has emerged as an alternative cell design style towards more litho-friendly designs aiming to combat the increase number of process variations in current nanoscale technologies and beyond. Thereby, several regular layout fabrics with various degrees of regularity that exploits the potential benefits of regular designs and an area overhead estimation thereof are provided throughout this work.

Layout pattern-driven design rule evaluation
With the use of subwavelength photolithography, some layouts can have low printability and, accordingly, low yield due to the existence of bad patterns even though they pass design rule checks. A reasonable approach is to select some of the candidate bad patterns as forbidden. These are the ones with a high yield impact or low routability impact, and these are to be prohibited in the design pha...
متن کاملOn rarely generalized regular fuzzy continuous functions in fuzzy topological spaces
In this paper, we introduce the concept of rarely generalized regular fuzzy continuous functions in the sense of A.P. Sostak's and Ramadan is introduced. Some interesting properties and characterizations of them are investigated. Also, some applications to fuzzy compact spaces are established.
متن کاملEDA Solutions for Double Patterning Lithography
Expanding the optical lithography to 32-nm node and beyond is impossible using existing single exposure systems. As such, double patterning lithography (DPL) is the most promising option to generate the required lithography resolution, where the target layout is printed with two separate imaging processes. Among different DPL techniques litho-etch-litho-etch (LELE) and self-aligned double patte...

Objectives: Inclusive education is a process of enabling all children to learn and participate effectively within mainstream school systems. It does not segregate children who have different abilities or needs. This article explores the attitudes of regular and itinerant teachers about inclusion of hearing impairment children in their schools in general education. Methods: In a descriptive S...
متن کاملGuidelines for Designing Human-Friendly User Interfaces for Factory Floor Manufacturing Operators
Agility and fast reaction to changes is required in today’s turbulent manufacturing environment. Unfortunately, the commonly used user interfaces (UIs) on the factory floor don’t support such rapid reaction. Even though the human involvement improves agility and reactivity of production systems, it is also a source of uncertainty, especially when it comes to information inputting. Therefore, sp...
