ELEG 450/650 Integrated Circuit Design and Fabrication
Homework #4 - due Friday, 2 March 2001

1. Using L-Edit, design the mask layout pattern for an nMOS transistor.
Follow ELEG650 course design rules for size, spacing and overlap. Label your layers:
diffusion, gate oxide, contact cuts, and metal (gate, source/drain).
Indicate scale either by plotting a ruler, or by manual marking. 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 to remember (just label them). Submit a top-view composite plot containing all layers.
Use an appropriate magnification so that your plot reasonably fills the page.

2. Do Exercises 14-3 and 14-4 in Hamilton and Howard, p. 534. Note that the 2 values for Vout given in the equations on p. 534 are for the special case kD = kL, whereas Exc 14-4 is for the general case kD not equal to kL.
