Abstract :
In this tutorial, the use of simulation techniques to improve the manufacturability yield of ASIC devices is described. ASIC manufacturability simulation procedures are illustrated with the help of various practical examples. Use of ASIC manufacturability simulation as part of standard design methodology at AT&T has been shown to improve the yield of ASIC devices, and it also helps reduce the ASIC design interval
