ARM (was Artisan) Library Access for Universities
ARM makes its standard cells, I/O libraries, and memory generators
for selected
processes available to universities for research, and does not
permit their use for classroom projects.
Universities can access the complete front-end views of core, I/O
cells, and memory generators (behavioral, synthesis, simulation,
place, and route) for the above processes. GDS layouts are not
distributed to university users, instead these are
instantiated by MOSIS prior to fabrication.
To obtain access to the ARM library (for TSMC or IBM processes)
-
Have an active account with MOSIS. This is a prerequisite and cannot
be waived. Instructions on how to
create an account are
avilable on the MOSIS web site.
-
Complete and sign the
ARM license agreement for IBM, or
ARM license agreement for TSMC. Send two copies, each with
original signatures, by mail to MOSIS. Keep the
Appendix A (the tape-out sheet) until you have submitted a project for
fabrication. After you submit your layout, send Appendix A to MOSIS
by fax to 310-823-5624 with the design
number, the names of the products used, and the version numbers.
-
Access to these materials by educational institutions depends on
respect for the private and confidential nature of documents released
by industrial concerns for restricted distribution. If not already
done, the faculty account liaison will need to
Copies of completed agreements, all with original signatures should be
sent to:
-
MOSIS
Attn: New Account Manager
7th Floor
4676 Admiralty Way

Forms can be faxed to the MOSIS New Account Manager (fax 310-823-5624)
to expedite processing, but a hard copy with original signatures must
also be mailed to the above address.
Proposals must be sent electronically to
support@mosis.com in PDF
format. Do not fax nor send proposals to the New Account Manager.
