CUT MASK + DIFFRACTION GRATING + FIN PITCH DOUBLING VARIANT
A preliminary version of a 7 nm finFET gigabit (128 megabytes) SRAM synthetic design/stress test case is available for download now on the Yotta FTP site. It features:
14 nm drawn gate length
40 nm SRAM contacted gate pitch
80 nm by 360 nm single-port SRAM core bit cell size
two layers of local interconnect
three layers of metal
18 nm fin pitch
self-aligned double patterning (SADP) for fins
1-D gate layer
1-D routing
diffraction gratings for poly, local interconnect, and metal
cut masks to pattern diffraction gratings
This design simulates a commercial 128 megabyte single-port SRAM using 7 nm finFET design rules. It is 7,447.0 microns wide and 8,083.4 microns high with a total of 8,616,691,110 transistors.
The family of 7 nm finFET design rules used for this design has self-aligned double pattern (SADP) fin generation, a 14 nm drawn gate length, a 40 nm contacted gate pitch, two layers of local interconnect, six metal layers, 40 nm routing pitches for lower metal layers, and 48 nm routing pitches for upper metal layers (metal 4 and up). This design uses only three metal layers, as is typical for merchant SRAMs.
All geometry on the transistor gate, first local interconnect, and metal 2 layers is vertical. All geometry on the second local interconnect and metal 3 layers is horizontal. Diffraction gratings with cut masks are drawn for gate, local interconnect, and metal layers. Most critical design layers have three colors; metal 1 has four colors because it has 2-D routing.
Design rule variants in this family can have 2-D routing on any subset of gate or routing layers, diffraction gratings with blockage or cut masks on any subset of gate or routing layers, or different color counts.
