  • Abstract
    Design for manufacturability (DFM) is becoming increasingly important as process geometries shrink. The system-on-chip business model requires high quality, high yielding IP. This paper shows how DFM and DFY are integrated as part of IP delivery, using a set of metrics to identify and fix yield limiters without compromising power, area or performance
