Design for Manufacturability
In the past, products have been designed that could not be produced. Products have been released for production that could only be made to work in the model shop when prototypes were built and adjusted by highly skilled technicians. Effective product development must go beyond the traditional steps of acquiring and implementing product and process design technology as the solution. It must address management practices to consider customer...

Design for Manufacturability: Challenges and Opportunities
Design for manufacturability (DFM) is one of the foremost concerns in the semiconductor industry today. This work describes a few of the key issues facing circuit designers and tool developers in the DFM space and points to future areas of research interest. In particular, we show that comprehending and exploiting systematic pattern dependencies can be a powerful knob to improve performance under variability. Furthermore, we describe a...

Demystifying DFM
Design for manufacturing (DFM) is about connections: connections within the design flow, connections within the manufacturing flow, and, most importantly, connections between design and manufacturing. These connections are required to address fundamental issues associated with yield loss in today’s leading-edge semiconductor products (see Figure 1) and are key to a robust DFM solution. The evolution of these connections closely tracks with...

Design for manufacturability (Integrated Circuits)
Design for manufacturability (DFM) refers to the general engineering art of designing products in such a way that they are easy to manufacture. The basic idea exists in almost all engineering disciplines, but of course the details differ wildly depending on the manufacturing technology. Here are examples: Design for manufacturability for integrated circuits.

Introduction to Design for Manufacturability (SC855)
Design for Manufacturability (DfM) means different things to different people: those on the design side of our business see it as the art of reducing dimensional and parametric conservatism while protecting aggressive time to market targets, those on the manufacturing side look to DfM to preserve profitability in light of increasing process complexity. Regardless of individual motivations, it is clear that DfM will continue to gain...
