| 8.0 ANTENNA RATIO RULES |
| ================================= |
| |
| An antenna includes all conducting structures on the same layer and the same electrical node that connect to an |
| active area only via layers below it. No antenna related rule for TaN resistor |

| **NOTES** |
| |
| (1) Following diodes can be used as Antenna diodes: |

| |
| (2) Other Possible repairs if the Antenna ratio violate the design rule is break the metal close to the gate and jog the metal |
| to an upper metal level |

| **Example:** |
| |
| Illustration on the above antenna ratio calculation: (Terms on the right hand side of the equations below (eg. Metal3) refer to the layout areas of the corresponding structures in the diagram above.) |
| |
| .. math:: |
| |
| Antenna_ratio (Metal_3) = Metal_3/(Poly_{2A} + Poly_{2B} + Poly_{2C}) |
| |
| Antenna_ratio (M2A) = Metal_{2A}/(Poly_{2A} + Poly_{2B}) |
| |
| Antenna_ratio (M2B) = Metal_{2B}/Poly_{2C} |

| :alt: Area calculation |
| |
| .. math:: |
| |
| Poly2/Metal Perimeter Area = 2 [(t X z) + (t X y)] |
| |
| Where |
| |
| y: Poly2/Metal length |
| |
| z: Poly2/Metal width |
| |
| t: Poly2/Metal thickness |
