El Segundo, California, USA and Landshut, Germany – June 8, 2011 - AWR® Corporation and LFoundry GmbH today announced the availability of a process design kit (PDK) for LF150. LFoundry’s LF150 is a modular 0.15µm RF CMOS process, offering up to six levels of Aluminum plus thick metal (2 - 6µm), optionally a MIM capacitor, a polyimide passivation and I/O voltages of 1.8V, 3.3V and 5.0V. This new PDK for LF150 targets those customers designing RFICs for telecom, automotive, industrial and energy saving applications.

The Analog Office® design kit includes a full set of RF devices, along with a set of standard devices that will expand to include more options as customer demand warrants. The PDK includes fully scalable models covering temperature effects, process corners, and Monte Carlo statistical behavior.  Analog Office supports PowerDRC/LVS and Calibre verification flows, both of which are offered in the new PDK. It also includes all electromagnetic (EM) stack-up information preconfigured to perform EM analysis and/or RLCK parasitic extraction from within the Analog Office design environment using AWR's EM Socket™ interface.

"We are currently working with one of our European customers in taping out a design using our advanced LF150 process together with AWR's Analog Office software," said Gerhard Spitzlsperger, chief technology officer of LFoundry. "This PDK combines LFoundry’s LF150 0.15µm RF CMOS process with AWR’s innovative software and technologies, giving our mutual customers many benefits and advantages to successfully complete designs."

Graeme Ritchie, product manager at AWR, added, “LF150 provides an excellent fit with Analog Office’s customer requirements. With RF MOS Ft’s of up to 90 GHz, LF150 is ideal for circuits operating up to 10 GHz and beyond enabling a wide variety of RF applications to be addressed.“
