  • Abstract
    Presents an approach for circuit extraction that considers the physical significance of each overlay in multilayer IC masks. The overlay graph transformed from mask artwork data keeps the topological and geometric information of integrated circuits. The extraction based on the overlay graph implements a transformation from an IC chip layout to a circuit representation suitable for detailed circuit simulation. The approach can be applied to MOS and bipolar IC technologies.<>
