Drag and Drop SolidWorks 2-D Sketch { Save as .dxf } Through Cadence Without Cadence Obtain .cif File Obtain .gds file Use -Lab Unix Command “gds2tap filename.gds” Follow Directions on BSAC Webpage to import .cif file Obtain .tap file Open file in Cadence … for Fabrication Process Flow to Obtain Mask Files (.tap) SolidWorks 3-D Model FAB
…STS process Sorry… Confidential Information Single layer mask files can be easily obtained using process delineated on previous slides FAB
In SolidWorks Mate in Assembly After Conversion In SolidWorks After Conversion Doughnut Problem Still Working on better solution to the “Doughnut Problem”: ~ *.gds files require reentrant polygons Without re-entrant ploy’s With re-entrant ploy’s FAB For more info: http://www.artwork.com/pads/polygon.htm
