  • Abstract
    An overview of important pattern density requirements and tradeoffs for advanced RF, analog and digital technologies is presented. This paper reviews process sensitivities to pattern density, the advantage of pattern density compliant designs, performance and modeling considerations, and presents methods of detecting and enhancing pattern density deficiencies to improve overall manufacturability.
