Noise is injected as a time domain signal into each driver stage in the clock distribution network and large signal non-linear transient simulations are performed to obtain the distribution of clock periods and the subsequent jitter in the clock signal. In the simplest case the noise is the thermal channel noise of the CMOS driver transistors, and the results can be compared to the simple analytical estimate given by Gray et al.[1994]. It will be shown that there is a good agreement between the simulation results and analytical estimates if a modified analytical formula is used where the simple estimate for delay by Gray et al. is replaced by the observed delay from simulations. The technique can be extended and is directly applicable to other types of noise such as power supply noise.","PeriodicalId":296968,"journal":{"name":"2004 IEEE Workshop on Microelectronics and Electron Devices","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124065661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since this is an important consideration in the low frequency noise in analog circuits with switching, we have investigated the signal processing technique used in some detail with respect to the data presented in the IEEE Electron Device Letters (vol.2, no.1, p. 43-46, 2000). No consideration was given to phase noise, a mixing with and modulation of the switched bias drain current by 1/f noise, in the analysis of the data. This can result in a response on the spectrum analyzer which corresponds very closely to the experimental data where the switched bias off gate voltage is near the threshold voltage. At low frequencies there will be just 1/f noise, then a plateau caused by the sum of 1/f noise and phase noise, a peak corresponding to the fundamental component of the switched bias, and at higher frequencies a phase noise in excess of the 1/f noise.","PeriodicalId":296968,"journal":{"name":"2004 IEEE Workshop on Microelectronics and Electron Devices","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123731012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Leakage power reduction using self-bias transistor in VLSI circuits [digital circuits] 自偏置晶体管在VLSI电路中的泄漏功率降低[数字电路]

Minimizing leakage, by power gating logic circuits using sleep transistors gives considerable power savings. However, this technique cannot be used in sequential circuits and memory cells, as it would result in loss of stored data. In this paper, we propose a novel circuit by applying a self-bias transistor (SBT) to minimize sub-threshold leakage currents in static and dynamic circuits. This circuit with SBTs, acts as a smart switch by virtually power gating either pull-up or pull-down logic, and causes a considerable reduction in leakage currents in both active and standby modes. A benchmark is simulated with 0.18 /spl mu/m CMOS technology in the Cadence Spectre circuit simulator. Results show significant reduction in leakage power, of up to 50% on average, for all possible states simulated in static and dynamic circuits by applying this proposed self-bias transistor.","PeriodicalId":296968,"journal":{"name":"2004 IEEE Workshop on Microelectronics and Electron Devices","volume":"141 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121225760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In general use over an ASIC or other active device, this architecture relies upon the oxide/nitride passivation stack for complete conformal coverage of IC routing metalization, and assumes an absence of pinholes. We have created a test chip to evaluate the validity of these assumptions under BHT testing, as well as to enable comparative thermomechanical performance and induced parasitic effects. In this paper, we describe the BHT and failure analysis results indicating that passivation processes need to be optimized in order for this architecture to work. This result has implications in \"over-the-fence\" design in which a bump supplier makes assumptions regarding the quality of passivation from an IC manufacturer, and how passivation stacks which were good enough for peripheral wire bonding applications may need to be re-thought for area-array bumping.","PeriodicalId":296968,"journal":{"name":"2004 IEEE Workshop on Microelectronics and Electron Devices","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132677786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we summarize experimental and modeling results to investigate the chip-package interaction and its impact on low k interconnect reliability. We first review the experimental techniques for measuring thermal deformation in a flip-chip package and interfacial fracture energy for low k interfaces. Then results from 3D FEA, based on a multilevel sub-modeling approach in combination with high-resolution moire interferometry, to investigate the chip-package interaction for SiLK and MSQ low k interconnects are discussed. Packaging induced crack driving forces for relevant interfaces in Cu/low k structures are deduced and compared with corresponding interfaces in Cu/TEOS and Al/TEOS structures to assess the effect of ILD on packaging reliability. Our results indicate that packaging assembly can significantly impact wafer-level reliability causing interfacial delamination to become a serious reliability concern for Cu/low k structures.","PeriodicalId":296968,"journal":{"name":"2004 IEEE Workshop on Microelectronics and Electron Devices","volume":"52 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120993579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
