Minimum hardware required is a single drive 128K Mac. Lambda-based designs are done in MacDraw, using predefined stipple patterns. MOSIS NMOS and scalable CMOS layers are supported. Converted designs are downloaded to the MAGIC host computer for display, design rule checking, and extraction. A future version will include MAGIC -> MacDraw conversion. You can request a copy of "VLSI Magician" by mail. We will respond with a beta test agreement. Return the agreement with a disk. MacDraw is not included in the distribution.
