Abstract :
The ´design on tolerance´ concept in integrated optic is introduced. The aim of this technique is to design a circuit that is robust to statistical variations of the parameters due to technological processes and aging. The numerical technique permits to design a generic circuit that maximizes the yield of the production process and at the same time locates the most critical parameters of the circuit.
