Design Impacts of Fully Depleted SOI


Xavier Cauchy, digital applications manager at Soitec, considers the design implications of fully depleted SOI technology, including models, low-power techniques for SoCs, and other issues at the 22nm node. “Compelling simulation and silicon data for nanometer scale transistors is becoming available. However, as potential users realize the many interests of this technology, the next question ... » read more
