The project involves front end to back end design, to tapeout. After fabrication of the chip was completed, measurements were performed to test the accuracy of the oscillators. This test chip was used to verify Silterra's PDK (Process Design Kit). Four different oscillator circuits were fabricated. The results show excellent agreement between simulated and measured gate delay. ©2008 IEEE. date: 2008 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-65949124681&doi=10.1109%2fSMELEC.2008.4770290&partnerID=40&md5=679064dab7fd3e1b73a9408211b8436e id_number: 10.1109/SMELEC.2008.4770290 full_text_status: none publication: IEEE International Conference on Semiconductor Electronics, Proceedings, ICSE place_of_pub: Johor Bahru, Johor pagerange: 122-125 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781424425617 citation: Nawi, I.M. and Kordesch, A.V.
