One of the biggest advantages of moving to the a leading edge process node is ultra-low voltage operation, where devices can achieve better performance using less power. But the latest generation ...

Variation is becoming a major headache at advanced nodes, and issues that used to be dealt with in the fab now must be dealt with on the design side, as well. What is fundamentally changing is that ...

Circuit delay is increasingly affected by process variations at lower technology nodes. Global variations are in double digits now, and according to the International Technology Roadmap for ...

In today's highly competitive semiconductor industry, profitability hinges largely on advantageous design performance, high yield and rapid time to market. As leading edge designs push into smaller ...
