Hello friends welcome to my YouTube
0:03
channel called silicon vsi today we will
0:05
discuss about types of fire in layout it
0:09
will be in analog layout as well as in
0:11
memory layout so the first thing how why
0:15
we are using the wire this VRE we are
0:17
using to connect between two metal metal
0:19
1 to Metal 2 we are using wire one Metal
0:22
2 to metal 3 we are using yre 2 so like
0:27
this is the connection between metal one
0:29
and to like lower metal to higher metal
0:32
so first wire what we are using here is
0:38
wire let's assume this is metal
0:41
one this is Metal 2 so for that we are
0:44
using a square wire this is the
0:47
crosssection yre one this is metal one
0:52
this is Metal 2 so for that first type
0:55
of wi is a square wire what we are using
0:58
or a single wire we can say if overlap
1:01
is a small we are using a single wire
1:04
second type is rectangular wire or buer
1:07
wire rectangular wire
1:12
wire so if we have enough space it is
1:16
always better to use a bar wire instead
1:19
of square wire Metal 2 metal one I'm not
1:23
doing this I'm not drawing this cross
1:24
section I'm just doing
1:28
drawing just just overum so this is bar
1:32
let's assume the square wi size is 32 by
1:34
32 nanom so in this case the bar wire
1:39
nanom so in our design it is always
1:42
better to use bar wire instead of the
1:45
square wire so this wire is a very good
1:49
wire in our layout design so this is
1:54
wire now the third type of wire is a
2:03
large yre means it is bigger than the
2:06
square wire as well as a rectangular wi
2:10
so let's assume Square wire size is 32
2:12
by 32 nanom large wire like
2:26
n so in case of large wire
2:31
it will be 64 nanom by 64 Nan so
2:36
wherever possible use large
2:47
wire so this is a large wire this is
2:51
very good wire as compared to square
2:53
wire and wi fourth type is St wire or we
3:00
wire St wire means what let's assume you
3:04
are drawing metal one and metal two like
3:09
way this is metal one this is Metal
3:12
2 then you are connecting with Y 1 it
3:16
will be like Square Y Bar y or
3:18
rectangular y on the same thing on the
3:22
same n metal 2 is connected with metal 3
3:25
so you drawing another metal of metal 3
3:29
here so you are putting somewhere here
3:32
or somewhere so it is always better to
3:35
put it here not here in this region like
3:38
if possibilities are there Y2 this is y
3:41
one so why I'm saying because it is more
3:47
friendly or more more we can say it is
3:54
friendly so this call is t d
3:59
so I'm not saying we should we must put
4:02
like this way but if there is a chance
4:06
we should put it like St St means what
4:09
one above other like this one this is y
4:17
3 so connection wise if you see here
4:22
one to metal 3 like or metal four like
4:26
straightforward so if if you are using
4:29
not not this kind of thing like this way
4:31
like if you using yre 2 here yre three
4:35
here y 4 it's kind of letter like path
4:41
this but here the path is very straight
4:47
this you are getting my point right this
4:50
is called St so we have three four type
4:54
of wire one is square wire bar wire
4:57
large wire and St wire
5:00
so far we are using this kind of wire in
5:02
our VSA design so if you have any other
5:05
wire if you know any other wire please
5:09
mention in comment if you like this
5:11
video please subscribe my channel thank
