    摘要: An apparatus and method of synthesizing a photolithographic data set includes using a first computational model to calculate a first figure-of-merit for the photolithographic data set; changing a first part of the photolithographic data set to increase the first figure-of-merit; and then using a second computational model to calculate a second figure-of-merit of the photolithographic data set; and changing a second part of the photolithographic data set to increase the second figure-of-merit. The second computational model enables figure-of-merit calculations to be executed at a significantly faster execution rate than the first computational model.

    摘要: A hierarchical representation encapsulates the detailed internal composition of a sub-circuit using the notion of a cell definition (a CellDef). The CellDef serves as a natural unit for operational reuse. If the computation required for the analysis or manipulation (e.g. parasitic extraction, RET, design rule confirmation (DRC), or OPC) based on a CellDef or one cell instance can be applied, with no or minimal additional effort, to all or a significant subset of other instances of the cell, very substantial reduction in computational effort may be realized. Furthermore, a hierarchical representation also allows for the partitioning of the overall analysis/manipulation task into a collection of subtasks, e.g. one per CellDef. Multiple jobs may then be distributed across a large number of computational nodes on a network for concurrent execution. While this may not reduce the aggregate computational time, a major reduction in the overall turnaround time (TAT) is in itself extremely beneficial.

    摘要: Each object (such as for example an integrated circuit) of a population of similar objects is configured to generate instances of a dynamic binary identification code (ID) that differ from instances of IDs generated by all other member objects of the population. While bits residing in most of the bit positions of the ID generated by each member object of the population do not vary in state from instance-to-instance of that ID, bits residing in one or more of the bit positions of the ID may vary (drift) in state from instance-to-instance of that ID. A set of instances of the ID generated by each member object of the population are analyzed to construct a separate “drift profile” for each member object's ID indicating for each bit position a probability that the bit position will contain a bit of a particular state. Thereafter, to verify that a particular object is a specific member object of the population, a set of instances of the ID generated by that particular object is analyzed to construct a drift profile for that particular object's ID. That drift profile is then compared to the drift profiles of the IDs generated by the member objects of the population to determine whether the particular object is a certain specific member object of the population.

    摘要: A field programmable interconnect device (FPID) flexibly interconnects a set of electronic components such as integrated circuits and other devices to one another. The FPID is an integrated circuit chip including a set of ports and a cross-point switch that can be programmed to logically connect any one port to any other port. Each FPID buffer port may be programmed to operate in various modes including unidirectional and bi-directional, with or without tristate control, and to operate at various input or output logic levels with adjustable pull up currents. Each FPID buffer port may also be programmed to perform various operations on buffered signals including adjustably delaying the signal, inverting it or forcing it high or low. The FPID is linked to a host computer via a bus that permits the host computer to program the FPID to make the desired connections, to select various modes of operation of buffers within the FPID and to read out data stored in the FPID. Each port of an FPID also samples and stores data indicating states of the signal passing through it over the last several system clock cycles. The FPID can subsequently read out the stored data to the host computer.
