Class Project Handout - Bug Fixes
Location of startup files
The files you need to start working on the project are all in
/afs/ece/class/ee761/Spring99/Project. Specifically you will find the following:
- pin_location: The coordinates of the driver, the buffers and the branch points
- htree.ps: The near-optimal h-tree associated with the pin_locations file
- cmos.fab: The input to pdFab for the nominal and statistical process/device simulation
- cmos35.fab: Same as cmos.fab
- models: BSIM3v3 models generated from pdfab -f cmos.fab after a 3.5 hr nominal run
Driver Design: Excitation network
Please use the following network to excite your driver:
vinput internalinput 0 PWL 0n 0v 25p 3.3v
rinput internalinput input 1
The simplest driver you can use is a CMOS inverter. Large devices
may be needed to ensure that the rise time at the driver pin on the
network is 300ps.
