Cadence XFAB XH018

Farnaz

Hi,

I am currently working with Cadence XFAB XH018.

In this technology, I would like to use a photodiode (dphoa) layout, which minimum size is bigger than what I wanted.

I want to understand the purpose of each layer that used in this photodiode and if it is possible, remove some of the unnecessary layers to shrink the size.

If anyone did the same before?

In order to do this, I need to fully understand the purpose of each layer, Are there any documents that can help me?

  • You refer to "Cadence XFAB" but this is not something from Cadence; I assume you're talking about the XH018 Process Design Kit (PDK) provided by X-Fab for working with Cadence (Virtuoso) tools.

    There may be somebody else familiar with the PDK here (although they may need to be careful about NDAs when answering). I suspect you would be better off contacting X-Fab and asking them?

    Regards,

    Andrew

    Thank you Andrew,

    Yes, I am talking about the XH018 Process Design Kit.

    Thanks again for your help and I will ask X-Fab.
