The IC-CAP Target Modeling extraction package (85199KL) enables engineers to efficiently extract or re-center CMOS models based on process control monitor (PCM) target data.
Traditional CMOS modeling uses extensive I-V and C-V data for various device geometries. These are typically obtained from time consuming measurements when the process is stable and mature. To extract accurate CMOS models much earlier in the design cycle, Target Modeling uses process control monitor (PCM) data, typically fast single bias point measurements, which are commonly available in the early stages of process development.
Overview:
The Extraction Package includes a dedicated UI main window that manages the PCM data import and the creation of scaling and I-V diagrams. Device information and PCM data are imported directly from excel spreadsheet. Convenient wizards enable you to define subsets of devices and derive PCM data scaling diagrams (e.g. Ion vs. L, Ioff vs. W, etc.).
A dedicated user interface enables you to combine diagrams into multiple plots. The powerful IC-CAP Plot Optimizer tool enables you to conveniently select model parameters and tune and optimize scaling and I-V plots.
Powerful simulator links to ADS enables real time tuning performance when simulating multiple devices.
