Sessions
Main focus of this talk is the SG13G2 Open Source PDK for IHP 130nm BiCMOS technology. One year ago, it was announced that IHP will publish an open source PDK for its SG13G2 technology. Since this is a long-term project, the current state will be presented. This includes the experiences and a road map for future work. The already known challenges and open issues will be addressed. Finally, an overview about multi-project wafer offer of IHP will be given.
