Foundry’s First VirtualInductor/Transformer/Capacitor LibrariesUMC works with its EDA tool partners to deliver the industry's first parameterized design kits. Full wave simulation has beenperformed on all kits within the Virtual Inductor / Transformer / Capacitor Libraries. The virtual libraries enable RFCMOS designersto create and simulate custom inductor geometries that are based on UMC's processes. These libraries are built upon UMC'sElectromagnetic Design Methodology (EMDM), which allows engineers to easily and accurately create any RF structure. EMDM givesdesigners the flexibility to innovate new geometries simply by editing parameters such as diameter, number of turns or width.Foundry’s First Virtual LibraryVILSpiralDifferential w/ocenter tapDifferential withcenter tapStack• Input: single/differential endVTL• Output: single/differential end• Turn Ratio: 1:n, n:2n, n:nW/O centertapCT on primarycoilCT onsecondaryCT on both coilsOctagonVCLSymmetryAsymmetryNote : The Virtual library can be used to simulate all types of RF inductors and capacitors.CT: Center TapMS/RF Design Flow and FDKThe FDK (Foundry Design Kit) provides IC designerswith an automatic design environment. Themethodology provides access to circuit-leveldesign and simulation, circuit layout, and layoutverification using RF device models. In the front-end,fundamental components of UMC’s MS/RF process areimplemented in common design environments andsimulation tools. The back-end includes parameterizedcells (P Cell), which includes a schematic driven layoutto provide an automatic and complete design flow.Callback functions are also provided in the design flowto minimize data entry. EDA tools for MS/RF designsare also supported.Schematic (Composer)(Symbols & CDF)Schematic Driven LayoutCircuit LayoutVirtuoso(P-cell)Verification&Extraction(DRC/LVS/LPE)Calibre/XRCAssuraTape OutInductor spec.Virtual Inductor/CapacitorTransformerLibraryVirtual Inductor/Capacitor/TransformerLibrarySpectre/Spectre RFEldo/EldoRFHspiceADSSimulator withVerifiedRF/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 ofinductors accurately calibrated to UMC's silicon. It also allows users to perform inductor optimization through just a few simple stepsusing 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.
