NEW D01PH PDK RELEASE

Improvement of our D01PH(S) PDK

OMMIC’s processes are design to have a long lifetime… and long support! D01PH(S) has been release last century and we are still updating the PDK.
Notable changes are listed here-below:

UPDATE OF THE AWR DESIGN KIT – Now V3.1.9:
– DRC rules integrated
– Capacitance to ground equation updated for all devices (PADs, FETs, Diodes,…)
– “TIN” layer added on via-hole and pad layouts, pad layout updated
– Non linear FET dedicated to ohmic zone for switch/mixer application added
– Non linear Diodes DIGM updated
– Non linear Diodes DIBE DIBEOV updated
– Small signal model: DC current now displayed on the device, flicker noise model updated
– Layers names and GDS numbers updated
– SiN and SiN+SiO2 MIM capacitor model adjusted, EM substrates updated to be consistent
– New EM substrate for Hsub=70µm + dedicated SPP rules: derived layers are updated for the via-hole when wafer thickness is 70µm
– Via hole schematic model updated
– “shortcuts” library integrated including Stackups and Extract blocks
– Etch Stop option: process variant is added to PDK. D01PHS process is the D01PH with addition of an etch stop layer

MINOR UPDATE OF THE ORCHAD PSPICE LIBRARY:
– Correction of resistance calculation for extracted resistors
– Update the inductance value for via hole

The new version is accessible in your personal account on OMMIC’s website.

ABOUT OMMIC

Created in 2000 by spinning off Philipps, OMMIC specializes in the development and manufacturing of microwave circuits. OMMIC focusses on III – V technologies (GaN, GaAs and InP) and made the strategic choice to locate all its activities in France, on the historic site of Limeil-Brévannes, investing heavily in research. Today, OMMIC is the world leader in millimetric GaN technology, with superior power and unparalleled energy efficiency technology. The company is positioned to be one of the pillars of millimetric 5G. More information is available at www.ommic.com
