FD-SOI – Consortium Results (Part 2 of 3): Power and Performance
By Various Writers - 21 Mar, 2012 - Comments: 0

The results of the most recent SOI Consortium benchmarking study detail the interest of planar FD-SOI as early as the 28nm and 20nm technology nodes, in terms of performance, power and manufacturability. This 3-part blog series looks further at some of the implications. ~~ Fully depleted transistor architectures such as Planar FD-SOI, FinFETs (which is also a fully-depleted technolog... » read more

Smart Power on SOI
By Various Writers - 06 Jun, 2011 - Comments: 0

By Adele Hars What if you had to reduce power dissipation by 40x? That's exactly the task that fell to STMicroelectronics, under an EU program called Smart Power Management. At the recent ISPSD (International Symposium on Power Semiconductor Devices and ICs) conference, ST and partners (GE Vingmed Ultrasound and Sintef) presented a paper on how they did it, using ST's latest SOI-based ... » read more

Making A Multicore System Work
By Ed Sperling - 29 Jan, 2009 - Comments: 0

If you think designing a single-core system is hard, designing multicore systems is multiple times harder. Connecting all the pieces together and making them work properly, if not together, is one of the hardest tasks design engineers and architects will ever face. System-Level Design tracked down some of the experts in this field and sat them down around a table to discuss what’s going... » read more
