Accurate capacitance and RC extraction software tool for pixel, sensor, and precision analog designs

چکیده
This paper presents a new CAD tool – F3D – for accurate 3D capacitance and distributed RC model extraction for image sensor designs. F3D overcomes limitations of existing parasitic extraction tools and field solvers, and enables a predictive accurate capacitance extraction and distributed RC model generation, automated identification of all relevant capacitive coupling components, including long-range coupling, and detecting even small (down to 0.01% or better) capacitance mismatch caused by layout effects.
