This chapter describes LSI Logic's analogue BiCMOS technology and attempts to highlight the importance of modelling and simulation at all stages of chip manufacture and development in particular, process and device modelling are discussed as ways to improve the overall manufacturing process of a designed circuit. At its lowest level this means modelling the manufacturing steps to enable a more stable process to be developed and manufactured, whilst at its highest level it means statistically modelling the single transistor performance to enable the reliable prediction of circuit performance.
