What is a Manufacturability Review?
When designs are received by MOSIS, a manufacturability review is performed. The manufacturability review examines design syntax and layer names, but does not check for design rule violations. The manufacturability review also computes the size of the project (the Minimum Bounding Box, or MBB), counts the pads, then checks actual values with declared values. After manufacturability review, MOSIS will send a message with the status of your project, as: • QUEUED FOR FAB, • AWAITING FUNDING, or • FAILED If your submission generates a message of QUEUED FOR FAB, then you have passed the manufacturability review. If your submission generates a message of AWAITING FUNDING, your design passed the manufacturability review but cannot be queued for fabrication due to a funding issue. Please contact MOSIS Customer Support.
