MATCHED DIFFUSION RESISTOR PAIR PYCELL
 
PyCell Description:
This PyCell creates a tightly matched layout for a pair of resistors on diffusion, including mirroring across process gradients. Users may specify the length and width of each finger, the number of fingers and rows, whether the fingers are connected in series or parallel, and whether to include dummies. The series or parallel device connectivity is generated automatically. All geometry is design rule correct-by-construction for the process in use.

Process Technology:
The PyCell layouts above were generated for a generic 130nm process. This same PyCell source code has been tested to create design rule correct layout for both minimum spacing rules and recommended rules for foundry 65nm and 90nm processes, and for minimum spacing rules at 130nm, 180nm and 250nm.
