This paper introduces a novel hotspot detection methodology that utilizes pattern matching combined with lithographic simulation. This system will attempt to minimize the negative aspects of both pattern...
In this paper we present a modular approach which combines model based verification, pattern matching and machine learning methods in order to achieve a high accuracy over computing time ratio. We utilize...
Early lithographic hotspot detection has become increasingly important in achieving lithography-friendly designs and manufacturability closure. Fast physical verification tools employing pattern matching...
Among the possible double patterning strategies, self-aligned double patterning (SADP) has moved from Flash-only processes to more general purpose devices. The reason is that while lithoetch-litho-etc (LELE)...
This technical presentation describes the challenges and Mentor's solutions for verifying and testing IC designs targeted for 3D packages, such as stacked die using TSVs or multi-die packages using silicon...
