What is the latest PAS (PDK Automation System) release? Should I use PCell IDE & Techfile IDE for Finfet development instead?

VictorPeng 8 months ago

Hi all,

I am new to PCell & PDK Development, and I am learning to develop Finfet PDKs. I was wondering:

1. What is the latest PAS (PDK Automation System) release? Does it support Finfet PCell/PDK Development?

2. Should I use PCell IDE & Techfile IDE instead for Finfet PDK dev?

3. Any Finfet PDK development methodology recommendations otherwise?

Thank you! :)

I would recommend PCell Designer for this kind of technology (PAS still exists, but we mainly recommend that for existing users of PAS rather than for new developments). Here's a short video demo (not for FinFET but shows the principles: Creating a Simple MOSFET with PCell Designer) - I would advise you to contact your account team (or customer support) to speak with an Application Engineer for more specific advice.
