摘要: We have implemented a fast hierarchical circuit extractor for the Magic VLSI layout system. The keys to its speed are new algorithm based on corner-stitching, and ability extract cells incrementally. Because is incremental, typically only few must be re-extracted when changes. computes connectivity transistor dimensions, both internodal substrate parasitic capacitance, resistances. It parameterized work across wide range of MOS technologies.
