This paper presents a novel poly(PC)and active(RX)corner rounding modeling approach to SPICE simulations.A set of specially designed structures was used for measurement data collection.PC and RX corner rounding equations have been derived based on an assumption that the corner rounding area is a fragment of a circle.The equations were modified to reflect the gouging effect of physical silicon wafers.The modified general equations were implemented in the SPICE model to enable the model to describe the corner rounding effect.The good fittings between the SPICE model simulation results and the silicon data demonstrated in this paper proved that the designed corner rounding model is practical and accurate.
