DESIGN LAYOUT
By
Dr. Bellamkonda Saidulu
• Objectives:
– To know MOS layers
– To understand the stick diagrams
– To learn design rules
– To understand layout and symbolic diagrams
• Outcome:
– At the end of this, will be able draw the stick
diagram, layout and symbolic diagram for simple
MOS circuits

Metal Interconnect Layers
• Metal layers are electrically isolated from each other
• Electrical contact between adjacent conducting layers requires contact cuts

Moreover the wires are packed very closely together and thus
a large fraction of their capacitance is to their neighbors.
Scaling Models:
Commonly used Scaling models are the constant electric field and the constant
voltage scaling model.
Fig. indicates the device dimensions and substrate doping level which are
associated with the scaling of a transistor.
In order to accommodate the three models, two scaling factors- 1/α and 1/β are
used.
