Abstract:
Disclosed is technology for evaluating the performance, power, area, and cost of a new or significantly modified IC fabrication process. A layout of a circuit design is provided, the circuit design including pins, transistors, and interconnects. The interconnects have at least two endpoints, each of the endpoints being either a terminal of a transistor or a pin in the circuit design. The locations for a plurality of transistor and interconnect endpoints in the layout are identified. A three-dimensional circuit representation is fabricated in accordance with the layout and the fabrication process. Parasitic resistance and capacitance values are estimated for pairs of interconnect endpoints which share an interconnect in the three-dimensional circuit representation. An annotated netlist is developed for the plurality of the transistors interconnects endpoints identified from the layout, and which further indicates the parasitic resistance values and parasitic capacitance values estimated from the three-dimensional circuit representation.

Claim (Index 16):
The system of  claim 15 , wherein in identifying gate, source and drain terminals of the first transistor, the system\n identifies as an active region of the first transistor, a region where an active region geometry identified in the layout intersects a predetermined bounding box of the layout; identifies as the gate terminal of the first transistor, a region where a gate conductor geometry identified in the layout intersects the active region; and identifies as the source and drain terminals of the first transistor, respective portions of the active region on longitudinally opposite sides of the gate region.
