Latest Patents
Yu Fan Lu holds a notable patent titled "Extensible Layer Mapping for In-Design Verification." This invention describes techniques and systems for implementing a general extensible layer mapping approach that effectively bridges the gap between integrated circuit design database layers and the process layers involved in fabrication. The patent outlines a process where a first IC design layout, featuring in-design layers, can be transformed into a second IC design layout comprising derived layers. This transformation is accomplished through the application of a defined set of layer derivation rules, allowing for a one-to-many mapping between the in-design layers and the derived layers. Furthermore, a one-to-one mapping between the derived layers and the process layers utilized in parasitic extraction tools is generated, enabling efficient parasitic extraction based on the derived layout.
