Access a hierarchical layout editor. View the auto-generated hierarchical list of all symbols in a design, so that each symbol definition is directly accessible for editing. Analyze the file structures and export or import data for project and individual layout optimization.
CleWin is a layout editor we designed in cooperation with the MESA Research Institute at the University of Twente and Deltamask, a mask making company.
Since we started with the development of CleWin, almost 15 years ago, the product has evolved from a simple editor to a powerful mask design tool.
The product has been very successful over the years and is used worldwide in 25 countries, both by companies and universities.
Because CleWin is also meant to be used by students a lot of attention is given to the user interface.
CleWin is a hierarchical layout editor, i.e. a layout consists of symbols (also called cells) which may be nested.
Editing a symbol in one place will change all other instances of the same symbol.
CleWin shows a hierarchical list of all symbols in a design, so that each symbol definition is directly accessible for editing.
Furthermore, the hierarchical list provides a clear overview of the file structure and the dependencies between the defined symbols.
In this version , a powerful scripting engine was added, that allows the generation of objects using four different languages: C, Matlab, the MaskEngineer language and Lua.
Scripts are especially useful for complex, parametric designs, but also for relatively simple tasks like automatic numbering of chips. more
