Integrated Circuit Layout Design
What is an Integrated Circuit Layout Design?
An Integrated Circuit Layout Design refers to the three-dimensional arrangement of electronic elements such as transistors, capacitors and interconnections formed on a semiconductor material.
It represents the structural plan that enables a chip to perform a specific electronic function.
Developing such layouts requires technical expertise, research effort and significant investment. For this reason, the law grants exclusive rights to the creator over the original layout design.
Registration protects the design from unauthorized commercial reproduction and allows the owner to manufacture, license or transfer the technology lawfully.
