SIGNAL PATH OF A MULTIPLE-PATTERNED SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

摘要

A multiple-patterned semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes one or more layers with signal tracks defined by masks and a structure for transferring a signal between signal tracks and repowering the signal.

主权项

1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a signal conductor layer comprising: a first signal track having a design width on the signal conductor layer defined by a first mask and processed to a first physical width; a second signal track having the design width on the signal conductor layer defined by a second mask and processed to a second physical width, wherein the first signal track is adjacent to the second signal track and physical widths defined by a single mask track more closely than physical widths defined by separate masks; and a repeater structure to achieve a timing tolerance standard adapted to repower a first signal on a first conductor in the first signal track and transfer the first signal to a second conductor in the second signal track, and to repower a second signal on a third conductor in the second signal track and transfer the second signal to a fourth conductor in the first signal track.
