Full wave simulation has been performed on all kits within the Virtual Inductor / Transformer / Capacitor Libraries. The virtual libraries enable RFCMOS designers to create and simulate custom inductor geometries that are based on UMC's processes. These libraries are built upon UMC's Electromagnetic Design Methodology (EMDM), which allows engineers to easily and accurately create any RF structure. EMDM gives designers the flexibility to innovate new geometries simply by editing parameters such as diameter, number of turns or width. Foundry’s First Virtual Library VIL Spiral Differential w/o center tap Differential with center tap Stack • Input: single/differential end • Output: single/differential end VTL • Turn Ratio: 1:n, n:2n, n:n W/O center tap CT on primary coil CT on secondary CT on both coils Octagon VCL Symmetry Asymmetry Note : The Virtual library can be used to simulate all types of RF inductors and capacitors. CT: Center Tap MS/RF Design Flow and FDK The FDK (Foundry Design Kit) provides IC designers Schematic (Composer) (Symbols & CDF) with an automatic design environment. The methodology provides access to circuit-level design and simulation, circuit layout, and layout Schematic Driven Layout verification using RF device models. In the front-end, fundamental components of UMC’s MS/RF process are implemented in common design environments and Circuit Layout Virtuoso(P-cell) to provide an automatic and complete design flow. Callback functions are also provided in the design flow to minimize data entry. EDA tools for MS/RF designs Virtual Inductor/ Capacitor/ Transformer Library Virtual Inductor/ Capacitor Transformer Library Spectre/Spectre RF simulation tools. The back-end includes parameterized cells (P Cell), which includes a schematic driven layout Inductor spec. Verification&Extraction (DRC/LVS/LPE) Calibre/XRC Assura are also supported. Tape Out Eldo/EldoRF Hspice ADS Simulator with Verified RF/Mixed Signal Models Optimum Inductor/Capacitor/Transformer Finder (OIF/OCF/OTF) UMC offers the Optimum Inductor Finder (OIF) in the FDK package. The OIF gives designers the ability to quickly access a large library of inductors accurately calibrated to UMC's silicon. It also allows users to perform inductor optimization through just a few simple steps using the user-friendly interface. For instance, customers can define a desired inductor and make trade-offs between Q-factor and area. The OIF will select a design that best fits the specifications in a matter of seconds. In addition, UMC offers the Optimum Capacitor Finder (OCF) in the FDK package. The OCF gives designers the ability to quickly access a large library of capacitors accurately calibrated to UMC's silicon. It also allows users to perform capacitor optimization through just a few simple steps using the user-friendly interface.
