What is the role of ERC in VLSI
ERC stands for Electrical Rule Check.
It checks all possibilities of Electrical connection between all layers according to the technology node.
Reasons for ERC check.
Its checks…
- If we short the output
- It checks any Floating devices, gates, pins, and nets
- If any input is left unconnected,
- Floating wells
- If any gates are connected directly to supplies,
- If the design includes any possible ESD damage, etc.
- Connecting high voltages to the thin gates
- Minimum n-well widths
- Any floating layers
- Wrong overlap of P-plus or N-plus
