About VLSI- Physical design

In integrated circuit design, physical design is a step in the standard design cycle which follows after the circuit design. At this step, circuit representations of the components (devices and interconnects) of the design are converted into geometric representations of shapes which, when manufactured in the corresponding layers of materials, will ensure the required functioning of the components. This geometric representation is called integrated circuit layout. This step is usually split into several sub-steps, which include both design and verification and validation of the layout.

Modern day Integrated Circuit (IC) design is split up into Front-end design using HDL's, Verification and Back-end Design or Physical Design.
The next step after Physical Design is the Manufacturing process or Fabrication Process that is done in the Wafer Fabrication Houses. Fab-houses fabricate designs onto silicon dies which are then packaged into ICs.

Each of the phases mentioned above have Design Flows associated with them. These Design Flows lay down the process and guide-lines/framework for that phase. Physical Design flow uses the technology libraries that are provided by the fabrication houses. These technology files provide information regarding the type of Silicon wafer used, the standard-cells used, the layout rules, etc.

Technologies are commonly classified according to minimal feature size. Standard sizes, in the order of miniaturization, are 2μm, 1μm , 0.5μm , 0.35μm, 0.25μm, 180nm, 130nm, 90nm, 65nm, 45nm, 28nm, 22nm, 18nm... They may be also classified according to major manufacturing approaches: n-Well process, twin-well process, SOI process, etc.

Electronic design automation(EDA)

Electronic design automation (EDA or ECAD) is a category of software tools for designing electronic systems such as printed circuit boards and integrated circuits. The tools work together in a design flow that chip designers use to design and analyze entire semiconductor chips.

IMPORTANT FORMULA FOR CALENDER BASED PROBLEMS

Odd Days:
We are supposed to find the day of the week on a given date.

For this, we use the concept of 'odd days'.
In a given period, the number of days more than the complete weeks are called odd days.
Leap Year:
(i). Every year divisible by 4 is a leap year, if it is not a century.
(ii). Every 4^th century is a leap year and no other century is a leap year.
Note: A leap year has 366 days.
Examples:
1. Each of the years 1948, 2004, 1676 etc. is a leap year.
2. Each of the years 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 2000 etc. is a leap year.
3. None of the years 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 1800, 2100 is a leap year.
Ordinary Year:
The year which is not a leap year is called an ordinary years. An ordinary year has 365 days.
Counting of Odd Days:
1. 1 ordinary year = 365 days = (52 weeks + 1 day.)
  1 ordinary year has 1 odd day.
2. 1 leap year = 366 days = (52 weeks + 2 days)
  1 leap year has 2 odd days.
3. 100 years = 76 ordinary years + 24 leap years
  = (76 x 1 + 24 x 2) odd days = 124 odd days.
  
  = (17 weeks + days)  5 odd days.
  Number of odd days in 100 years = 5.
  Number of odd days in 200 years = (5 x 2)  3 odd days.
  Number of odd days in 300 years = (5 x 3)  1 odd day.
  
  Number of odd days in 400 years = (5 x 4 + 1)  0 odd day.
  Similarly, each one of 800 years, 1200 years, 1600 years, 2000 years etc. has 0 odd days.
Day of the Week Related to Odd Days:

No. of days: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Day: Sun. Mon. Tues. Wed. Thurs. Fri. Sat.
