Executive Presentation - Meeting the Critical Challenges of IC Implementation
At the 2008 Design Automation Conference in June, Joseph Sawicki, vice president and general manager of the Design to Silicon Division, laid out Mentor’s strategy to help customers with the challenges they face with IC implementation as they move to smaller process nodes.
Sawicki discusses new technology acquisitions and developments, product enhancements, and organizational alignment.
He also describes how Mentor is driving toward the...

Design for Manufacturability
In the past, products have been designed that could not be produced.
Products have been released for production that could only be made to work in the model shop when prototypes were built and adjusted by highly skilled technicians.
Effective product development must go beyond the traditional steps of acquiring and implementing product and process design technology as the solution.
It must address management practices to consider customer...

Design for Manufacturability: Challenges and Opportunities
Design for manufacturability (DFM) is one of the foremost concerns in the semiconductor industry today.
This work describes a few of the key issues facing circuit designers and tool developers in the DFM space and points to future areas of research interest.
In particular, we show that comprehending and exploiting systematic pattern dependencies can be a powerful knob to improve performance under variability.
Furthermore, we describe a...

Design for manufacturability (Integrated Circuits)
Design for manufacturability (DFM) refers to the general engineering art of designing products in such a way that they are easy to manufacture.
The basic idea exists in almost all engineering disciplines, but of course the details differ wildly depending on the manufacturing technology.
Here are examples: Design for manufacturability for integrated circuits.

Design for manufacturability (PCB)
Design for manufacturability (DFM for short.
Often referred to as 'design for manufacturing') is a design methodology intended to ease the manufacturing process of a given product.
In the PCB design process DFM leads to a set design guidelines that attempt to ensure manufacturability.
By doing so, probable production problems may be addressed during the design stage.
Ideally, DFM guidelines take into account the processes and capabilities...

Design for Manufacturability @ SI2.org
Design for manufacturability (DFM) is no longer a localized issue in the fab, but one that that transcends the supply chain.
More and more, manufacturing cycles and yield must be considered as an integral part of design of the library elements and the IC as a whole.
Manufacturing considerations must be an integral part of the design process and manufacturing decisions must be considerate of the design.
IC production must become a...
