SCMOS Design Flow
Design Tools
A variety of CAD tools are available to to create designs for
processes that support
SCMOS rules.
Cadence
Some members of the
Cadence University Software Program have created design kits,
technology files, etc., for various processes accessed by MOSIS using
SCMOS rules. One key example is the
NCSU Cadence Design
Kit (CDK), which focuses on supporting full-custom CMOS IC design.
Virginia Tech offers a
standard cell library for the TSMC 0.25 and 0.18 process
technologies based on MOSIS SCMOS_DEEP rules for use with Synopsys
synthesis and Cadence place-and-route tools.
Tanner
Tanner generated
standard cells and pads for
SCN3M_SUBM and SCM3ME_SUBM (AMIS 0.5), SCN4M_SUBM (TSMC 0.35), and
SCN5M_DEEP (TSMC 0.25) technologies. Pads only are available for SCNA
(AMIS 1.5)
Mentor Graphics
Mentor Graphics supports Technology Design Kits for Mentor's
Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Flow, including kits for several processes
accessed by MOSIS. For more information, please refer to
Silvaco
A MOSIS SCMOS design kit is available from Silvaco.
IC Editors
IC Editors provides IC Layout & Verification Software for PCs. DRC
and LVS files have been contributed.
LAYTOOLS
SCMOS (Scalable CMOS) verification decks for LAYTOOLS
are available, as well as standard cell libraries and I/O libraries.
Electric
The Electric Design System is a complete Electronic Design Automation
(EDA) system. The Electric source code has been given to the
Free Software Foundation.
Technologies files for MOSIS technologies are part of the default
installation.
LASI
LASI is a PC-based layout system. The associated textbook is
CMOS Circuit Design,
Layout and Simulation. LASI is available in
DOS
and Windows
versions.
Magic
Magic comes with source code and a relaxed copyright that allows you
to redistribute and modify it. See
Magic Technology
Files for MOSIS SCMOS,
SCMOS standard
cell libraries and pads.
