Title :
Process/Product Interactions in a Concurrent Design Environment
Author_Institution :
Adv. Micro Devices Boxborough, Boxborough
Abstract :
The interactions between VLSI processes and the products built in them continue to perplex those who design and those who manufacture semiconductor chips. Predicting, preventing, and minimizing these interactions is compounded by attempts to minimize time-to-market through concurrent process and design development in integrated design and manufacturing environments. Past experience, engineering conservatism, and flexible design techniques enable successful concurrent deep submicron CMOS VLSI designs.
