Submit A Design
Practice By Sending Trial Layout
MOSIS encourages you familiarize yourself with our submission process.
One way to do so is to send partial layout.
There are some precautions you need to take to insure you don't
unnecessarily commit your partial layout to fabrication, incur any
for-cost procedure, or trigger any manual and labor intensive design
handling.
When designs bound for a foundry that imposes further checks (all the
IBM and austriamicrosystems technologies, and the AMIS I2T100 and
I3T80 processes) pass the manufacturability review, the projects then
enter "Foundry Checks In Progress" rather than the "Queued For
Fabrication" state. Foundry checks are manual and labor intensive.
Immediately
cancel fabrication after you receive the notification that your
partial layout or test submission has gone into the "Foundry Checks
In Progress" state.
Instantiation
of Artisan IP is also labor intensive and should not be requested
for partial or test layout.
When your test or partial layout successfully enters the
fabrication queue, be sure to
cancel
that fabrication before you send your final layout, or before the
next run of that type closes.
The easiest way to prevent any automatic triggers of for-cost
procedures or any manual and labor intensive design handling is to
include a note in the
special handling field that the layout sent on this specific date
is for test purposes only and is not final layout. When you do send
final layout, include a note in the special handling field that the
layout sent on this specific date is intended for fabrication.
