Managing Advanced Node Variability with In-Design and Sign-off DFM Signoff Seminar November 2013 Philippe Hurat - Product Management Director – DFM – DSG
DFM is About Yield Cadence Solution Manufacturing issue Impact on design Partner with foundries to qualify LPA and reduce runtime impact Trusted partner for DFM services Integrate automated fixing in design platform Mandatory Litho checks Increased runtimes (DPT) More hotspots to fix More DFM optimization required (via, notches, cut-masks, …) Litho(LPA) WELL DRC clean is NOT sufficient! what you draw is not what gets manufactured Increased Variations across entire stack 3D devices are sensitive to CMP IP integration issues Impact on interconnect parasitics Signoff and in-design CMP Hotspot detection and fixing guidelines Front End of Line Modeling Block-based analysis CMP-aware parasitic extraction CMP(CCP) Planarity and Thickness problems result in yield loss Erosion Dishing Total Copper Loss LDE analysis integrated in Virtuoso with fixing guidelines 20/16FF Std cell variability and context optimization for std cell characterization Context-aware critical path analysis Increased custom post-layout iterations and over design Increased margins and timing closure due to variability caused by LDE Electrical Variability (LEA, LDE) More and stronger Layout Dependent Effects (LDE) Impact device performance
