Analog Layouts: What is Blech Length
We come across a lot of designs to meet high current requirements. Despite correct calculations of metal widths, we end up with Electromigration (EM) issues when it comes to deciding the length of the metal. Here is a quick tidbit that talks about how to deal with something called “Analog layout blech” from a layout perspective. We use these things while working, but hardly pay attention to them. Understanding and working on them is the key to enhancing your knowledge and skills in this area, a principle we at Semionics emphasize.
