The planar process is a manufacturing process used in the semiconductor industry to build individual components of a transistor, and in turn, connect those transistors together. It is the primary process by which silicon integrated circuit chips are built, and it is the most commonly used method of producing junctions during the manufacture of ...

Layout view of a simple CMOS operational amplifier. In integrated circuit design, integrated circuit (IC) layout, also known IC mask layout or mask design, is the representation of an integrated circuit in terms of planar geometric shapes which correspond to the patterns of metal, oxide, or semiconductor layers that make up the components of the integrated circuit.
Illustration of FEOL (device generation in the silicon, bottom) and BEOL (depositing metalization layers, middle part) to connect the devices. CMOS fabrication process. The front end of line (FEOL) is the first portion of IC fabrication where the individual components (transistors, capacitors, resistors, etc.) are patterned in a semiconductor substrate. [1]
Semiconductor process simulation is the modeling of the fabrication of semiconductor devices such as transistors. It is a branch of electronic design automation, and part of a sub-field known as technology CAD (TCAD). [1] [2]: Ch.24 A result from a simulated semiconductor process.
NEC and Toshiba used this process for their 4 Mb DRAM memory chips in 1986. [47] Hitachi, IBM, Matsushita and Mitsubishi Electric used this process for their 4 Mb DRAM memory chips in 1987. [37] Toshiba's 4 Mb EPROM memory chip in 1987. [47] Hitachi, Mitsubishi and Toshiba used this process for their 1 Mb SRAM memory chips in 1987. [47]
F 2 is used as a measurement of area for different parts of a semiconductor device, based on the feature size of a semiconductor manufacturing process. Many semiconductor devices are designed in sections called cells, and each cell represents a small part of the device such as a memory cell to store data.
Integrated circuit design, semiconductor design, chip design or IC design, is a sub-field of electronics engineering, encompassing the particular logic and circuit design techniques required to design integrated circuits, or ICs.
