    摘要: A semiconductor structure comprising a fuse/resistor structure over a functional layer having a substrate. The fuse/resistor structure includes a via, a first interconnect layer, and a second interconnect layer. The via is over the functional layer and has a first end and a second end vertically opposite the first end, wherein the first end is bounded by a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge and the second end is bounded by a third edge and a fourth edge opposite the third edge. The first interconnect layer includes a first metal layer running horizontally and contacting the first end and completely extending from the first edge to the second edge. The second interconnect layer includes a second metal layer running horizontally and contacting the second end of the via and extending past the third edge but reaching less than half way to the fourth edge.

    摘要: A system and method are provided for enabling a systematic detection of issues arising during the course of mask generation for a semiconductor device. IC mask layer descriptions are analyzed and information is generated that identifies devices formed by active layers in the masks, along with a description of all layers in proximity to the found devices. The IC mask information is compared to a netlist file generated from the initial as-designed schematic. Determinations can then made, for example, as to whether all intended devices are present, any conflicting layers are in proximity to or interacting with the intended devices, and any unintended devices are present in the mask layers. Steps can then be taken to resolve the issues presented by the problematic devices.
