LOCAP(3) MBK LOGICAL STRUCTURE DEFINITIONS LOCAP(3)

locap - mbk logical capacitor

The locap is used to describe a logical capacitor. Please note, this description is different from the RCN description and has a different purpose: the created capacitor is a functional logical capacitor, not a parasitic capacitor. For the time being, only MIM (i.e. metal/metal) and POLY/NWELL capacitors type are supported.

The declarations needed to work on locap are available in the header file "/labo/include/mlo.h".

The following C structure supports the description of the logical capacitor :

typedef struct locap
	{
	  struct locap	∗NEXT ;
	  struct locon	∗TCON ;
	  struct locon	∗BCON ; 
	  char	∗NAME ;
	  double	CAPA  ;
	  char	TYPE  ;
	  struct ptype	∗USER ;
	} locap_list	      ;
Pointer to the next locap of the list.
Pointer to the tcon (top plate) connector of the capacitor. This connector is, of course unique. See locon(3) for details.
Pointer to the bcon (bottom plate) connector of the capacitor. This connector is, of course unique. See locon(3) for details.
NAME
Capacitor instance name
Capacitance value
Layer type of the capacitor. Two legal values are available :
Metal/metal capacitor. The top plate and the bottom plate are in different metal layers.
Poly/NWELL capacitor. The top plate layer is POLY, the bottom plate layer is NWELL. Note: this capacitor type is technological dependent and is not available for any technology.
Pointer to a ptype list, see ptype(3) for details, that is a general purpose pointer used to share informations on the capacitor. This field is used with the LOCAP_INFO(3) ptype to store physical informations.
