Abstract

This paper describes the influence of the process fluctuations such as the critical dimension (CD) variation upon the interconnect capacitance C and RC delay. It is found that there is a tradeoff between C and RC delay variations because of the fringing capacitance. An interconnect design guideline to reduce C and/or RC delay variations is proposed. Also, C and RC delay variations for Cu interconnect are discussed.
