INTERACTIVE METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING TEXTED METAL SHORT CIRCUITS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and device to test the texted metal short circuit, and said method comprises the following steps: To input a circuit design file, wherein said circuit design file comprises the data of the layout pattern of said circuit design, the file format of said circuit design is a generic data stream format; to input a set of design rules; to select a specific check rule based on said set of design rules, wherein said specific check rule is for testing the texted metal short circuit in said circuit design; to execute a verification program [procedure] on said circuit design based on said specific check rule so as to obtain a first test result, wherein said first test result comprises all short circuit paths in said circuit design; and, based on said first test result, to execute a pseudo-texted program using fuzzy algorithm so as to obtain a second test result.
