White Paper: More MEMS Design Challenges with Unique Editing and Verification Features

Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) are a departure from Manhattan layouts, this makes modeling them into integrated circuits (ICs) a challenge.


Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) are a departure from Manhattan layouts, this makes modeling them into integrated circuits (ICs) a challenge.

For engineers to design MEMS, IC layout tools require the design capabilities for these broad geometries.

In this nine-page white paper, you will learn:

  • The challenges modeling MEMS in mechanical CAD
  • How to convert and design rule check (DRC) curved and all-angle geometries
  • How to account for all-angle rotation and node highlighting round-off

For the first white paper in this series, follow this link.
