  • Abstract
    This paper describes the AFFCCA (Accurate, Fast, Flexible Computation of Critical Area) tool. The algorithms implemented in AFFCCA can handle arbitrary geometry, defects causing shorts of arbitrary shapes, and a spectrum of process induced layout deformations. The presented results indicate that the unique features of AFFCCA allow for significant improvements in the accuracy of critical area computations
