Journal ArticleDOI
High-performance CMOS variability in the 65-nm regime and beyond
Kerry Bernstein,David J. Frank,Anne E. Gattiker,Wilfried Haensch,Brian L. Ji,Sani R. Nassif,E. J. Nowak,D. J. Pearson,Norman J. Rohrer +8 more
TL;DR: The performance of CMOS is described and variability isn't likely to decrease, since smaller devices contain fewer atoms and consequently exhibit less self-averaging, but the situation may be improved by removing most of the doping.
Journal ArticleDOI
Turning silicon on its edge [double gate CMOS/FinFET technology]
E.J. Nowak,Ingo Dr Aller,Thomas Ludwig,Keunwoo Kim,Rajiv V. Joshi,Ching-Te Chuang,Kerry Bernstein,Ruchir Puri +7 more
TL;DR: For both low-power and high-performance applications, DGCMOS-FinFET offers a most promising direction for continued progress in VLSI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design space exploration for 3D architectures
TL;DR: A brief introduction to 3D integration technology is given, the EDA design tools that can enable the adoption of 3D ICs are discussed, and the implementation of various microprocessor components using 3D technology is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Device and Architecture Outlook for Beyond CMOS Switches
TL;DR: A number of unique switches have been proposed as replacements for CMOS, many of which do not even use electron charge as the state variable and pass tokens in the spin, excitonic, photonic, magnetic, quantum, or even heat domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultralow-voltage, minimum-energy CMOS
Scott Hanson,Bo Zhai,Kerry Bernstein,David Blaauw,A. Bryant,Leland Chang,K. K. Das,Wilfried Haensch,E. J. Nowak,Dennis Sylvester +9 more
TL;DR: This work reviews circuit behavior at low voltages, specifically in the subthreshold (Vdd < Vth) regime, and suggests new strategies for energy-efficient design, and discusses the energy benefits of techniques such as multiple-threshold CMOS and adaptive body biasing.
