De-Embed Objects

Automatically locate holes & islands from overlapping objects.

 

Use De-Embed objects to automatically solves the polygon-inside-of-polygon problem found in many mask designs.  The polygon-inside-of-polygon is often the hardest mistake to catch and many times there are 1000s of overlapping polygons on a layer; it's almost impossible to visually determine the polarity for each. A mask operator can sometimes take hours attempting to repair or redraw the data so that re-entrant polygons are created with voids or has to break up the polygons into slices.
