PyCell Description:
|
This PyCell creates a precision resistor on diffusion. Users may specify the length and width of each finger, the number of fingers and rows, whether the fingers are connected in series or parallel, and whether to include dummies. The series or parallel device connectivity is generated automatically, making use of the RoutePath class in the Ciranova Layout API. The connectivity, spacing and contacts conform to the design rules for the process in use.

In the resistor layouts on this page, please note that the PyCell automatically inserts the maximum number of vias between metal1 and diffusion, taking into account the user parameters for finger width and contact length.

The PyCell layouts above were generated for a generic 130nm process. This same PyCell source code has been tested to create design rule correct layout for both minimum spacing rules and recommended rules for foundry 65nm and 90nm processes, and for minimum spacing rules at 130nm, 180nm and 250nm.
