Wed, 25 Jan 2006 Tonight (well, this morning, whatever) I stayed at work until about 1a heroically (yeah... my ass) fighting to PG (= "Polygon Generation" = tapeout) a metal rev of the Quad so we can get it to the fab before the start of the Chinese New Year (if it gets in before, it gets processed through the holiday, otherwise it doesn't start until afterwarfds—ugh). I am basically the owner of this whole thing; Ion made the couple little schematic changes, then handed it over to me for layout, and now I'm doing all the PG verifications. I guess it's good practice for when I'm leading a chip. I took the opportunity while waiting for the LVS, DRC, etc to run (fuckin' DRC takes almost two hours on a dual Xeon with 4 gigs of RAM) to finish designing the ESD pads, so now it's just a matter of getting them to fit into the pad ring, doing some sim-yoo-lation, and getting them consecrated by Marius, High Priest of HBM.
