Managing the Complexity of FinFET Standard Cell Layout with Cello
FinFET technologies have enabled designs with increased density and performance while reducing power, when compared to MOSFET. However, this comes at a cost of increased design complexity. Not only are some undesirable layout dependent effects more pronounced, but design rules have become much more complex. Many design rules violations can no longer be fixed within… Read More »Managing the Complexity of FinFET Standard Cell Layout with Cello
Tackling Advanced Analog FinFET Front-End Design Challenges with Better Methodologies
Analog engineers adopting advanced FinFET technologies face many challenges that were not present when using planar transistors. Challenges in layout implementation have a direct impact on design specifications, and the luxury of over-margining is long gone. There are no third-order effects anymore, and managing layout effects, such as device and interconnect parasitics, variation, matching, and EM-IR,… Read More »Tackling Advanced Analog FinFET Front-End Design Challenges with Better Methodologies
Tackling Advanced Analog FinFET Back-End Design Challenges
The layout implementation of analog circuits in advanced FinFET technologies is becoming increasingly complex and challenging, with many new design rules to consider and multi-patterning, density rules, matching, and EM-IR concerns. These challenges can translate to longer layout turnaround times and reduced productivity. Join this CadenceTECHTALK to learn about silicon-proven technologies that improve layout engineering… Read More »Tackling Advanced Analog FinFET Back-End Design Challenges
