Abstract

The design rules, layout guidelines and evolution of the open source predictive process design kit (PDK) FreePDK are discussed. This talk mainly focusses on FreePDK15TM which was developed for 15nm FinFET devices and was developed in collaboration with MentorGraphics. The FreePDK15 kit uses HSPICE Simulation Models from the ASU 14nm PTM-MG HP model (http://ptm.asu.edu). It supports technology library and display resources for Cadence Virtuoso and Calibre DRC, LVS, and xRC rules.
