Integrated circuit design to optimize manufacturability

摘要

Library design elements ( 102 ) are analyzed for manufacturability to be used in designing an IC chip to be manufactured using a particular manufacturing process. The library design elements from a library are obtained. Manufacturability attributes ( 104 ) of the library design elements are determined for the particular manufacturing process, where manufacturability attributes include yield-related attributes. Library views ( 106 ) with manufacturability attributes for the library design elements are then generated, which are utilizing by an electronic design automation (EDA) tool.
