Abstract :
In this paper we introduce a system for automatically generating layout, test procedure and report generation files for parametric and functional process monitor test structures. This system has been in production use at the MOSIS Service for several years with a variety of CMOS technologies. We will show how these files are generated with a mixed set of specifications, then integrated into a test system software environment and report generator
