IBM Design Kits For SiGe Processes
IBM design kits are available upon approval for MOSIS customers.
To obtain any of these items you must have an account with MOSIS and follow the instructions on the MOSIS web site at the IBM Design Rules, Process Specifications, and SPICE Parameters page.
The following IBM PDKs support Cadence IC6.1 (OA) only:
- 8HP
The following IBM PDKs support both Cadence IC6.1 (OA) and IC5.1.4.1:
- 7WL
All other PDKs only support IC5.1.41.

1 Note: Cadence Design Kit usage is reverse compatible. Cadence v5.0.33 works for kits supporting Cadence v5.1.41
2 Standard cells and/or I/O, with enablement for common platforms.
3 ESD Toolbox typically contains basic ESD device pcells and small ESD sub-circuits; e.g. anti-parallel diodes, double diodes, Darlington clamp, RC clamp
4 ADS support for IBM is RFDE/Dynamic-Link, and can only be used together with the IBM Cadence design environment.
5 Diva is offered, but not supported
6 Must use MMSIM
