DETERMINING ALLOWABLE ANTENNA AREA AS FUNCTION OF TOTAL GATE INSULATOR AREA FOR SOI TECHNOLOGY

摘要

A method is disclosed of determining allowable antenna limits for semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) technology. In one embodiment, the method may include: determining antenna area on a gate; determining antenna area on a source/drain; determining a total gate insulator area between gate and source/drain nets; and calculating allowable antenna area as a function of the total gate insulator area between the nets such that a larger total antenna area is allowed for larger total gate insulator area between the nets.
