ELEG 450/650 Integrated Circuit Design and Fabrication
Homework #4 - due Friday, 1 March 2002

1. Using L-Edit, design the mask layout pattern for an nMOS transistor.
Follow ELEG 450/650 course design rules for size, spacing and overlap. Label your layers:
diffusion, gate oxide, contact cuts, and metal (gate, source/drain).
Indicate the scale either by plotting a ruler, or by manual marking with a pen. Did you include all the dimensions so that a fab-house would be able to make your transistor? Use whichever fill patterns are convenient to view, plot, and for you to remember. Submit a top-view composite plot containing all 4 layers, with lables and scale.
Use an appropriate magnification so that your plot reasonably fills the page.

2. Submit a descriptive plan for your course project. This must include some CMOS circuitry, but may also include MEMS structures if you wish. Include a circuit schematic and a logic diagram with a logic symbol truth table. The MEMS structures can be formed using n-type substrate regions surrounded by p-type diffused regions. The n-type regions will remain free-standing after the p-type diffused regions are preferentially etched away during fabrication. Note: you will have an opportunity to edit and modify your design project during the semester.
