Reasons To Know IGZO
By Katherine Derbyshire - 15 Aug, 2024 - Comments: 0

Interest in monolithic 3D integration is driven by both compute-in-memory applications and a more general need for increased circuit density. Compute-in-memory architectures seek to reduce the power requirements of machine learning workloads, which are dominated by the movement of data between memory and logic components. Even in conventional architectures, though, placing high-density, high-ba... » read more

Legacy Process Nodes Going Strong
By Bryon Moyer - 23 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

While all eyes tend to focus on the leading-edge silicon nodes, many mature nodes continue to enjoy robust manufacturing demand. Successive nodes stopped reducing die cost at around the 20nm node. “In the finFET era of processes, esoteric process requirements necessary to move technology forward with each generation have added significant cost and complexity,” explained Andrew Appleby, p... » read more
