How semiconductors are made

Based on the development plan, the IC's function and performance are first decided, and the logic circuit is designed. During logic circuit design, a logic circuit diagram is drawn to determine the electronic circuit required for the requested function. Once the logic circuit diagram is complete, simulations are performed multiple times to test the circuit’s operation. If there is no issue with the operation, the actual layout pattern for the devices and the interconnects is designed by computer-aided design(CAD), and a mask pattern is drawn....
