Thanks for the reply erikl. so far the only way i could reduce those ground resistances was to introduce multiple ground pins, i will need to provide ground pads for each pin. Some ground paths are just way long, and i can not avoid them, using wider metal layer only helped to a certain extent...
I am designing an LNA, which has a large layout. I am forced to run long ground/Vdd lines around the circuit to connect to the Bulks/Nwells of different instances.
While extracting, i have the option of skipping parasitic extraction on Global nets ground/Vdd, giving me close to expected...
each metal layer has a current density capacity (current per one micron width) mentioned in one of the documents of the process. The thicker metals (thickness is not the same as width) on the top can carry more current for the same width. Use multiple (parallel) metal layers to add the capacity...
how assura checks for qrc?
I have this exact problem. I am able to extract passives with Assura QRC correctly. But transistors has that problem: the source/ drain area are calculated for the default pcell startup W/L parameters for the pdk. hence all parasitics are extracted incorrectly.
I...
ads2008 ubuntu
I have successfully tried ADS 2008 only on RHEL 4.4 WS, as it is officially supported. I wanted to know if anybody got it working on other non-supported linux distributions?
RHEL 5 WS?
RHEL 5 AS?
Ubuntu 8.04?
nmos lambda equation
hey bhav, your method is theoretically correct, and good for previous technologies. but Lambda is not a constant in sub-micron technologies like 0.18um. so you can't determine it using ratios.
mzhanghong's idea is better because it finds the lambda for that particular bias...
download vpitransmissionmaker
VPI transmissionMaker is for simulation of optical systems, photonics. I am using a licensed version in my univ. not sure of any free version.
