Furthermore, temperature variations for the range from 200-500 K demonstrate the degradation of the off-state current of HJ-ADGDLTFET. Also, DE enhances at low temperatures.","PeriodicalId":302936,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":"146 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132317450","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}

Karim","doi":"10.1109/ISQED.2013.6523586","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ISQED.2013.6523586","url":null,"abstract":"A 2.5D/3D multi die interposer with TSV (Through Silicon Via) allows massive wide parallel busses between memory and logics devices, improves speed, and significantly reduces power consumption. The TSV and silicon interposer are amongst the most promising technologies that offer the greatest vertical interconnects density. This new establishment will change the semiconductor industry paradigm for many years to come. 2.5D/3D technology introduces a new degree of electrical design complexity which is unfamiliar to many existing electrical design methodologies and EDA tools. A new electrical verification methodology must be developed with consideration to the micro level (TSV and interposer structures) and macro/system level simulation. At the Micro level, modeling of TSV is challenging due to its dependency on the material properties of the medium surrounding it and its impact on the signal losses/attenuation, capacitance effects, and the coupling among the vertical interconnects. At the Macro level, new electrical characteristics of the system need to be closely coupled with the thermal and mechanical tolerances of the entire 2.5D/3D packaging structure in order for its ultra wideband data exchange between logic chip and memory chips. TSV placement on logic and memory chips must be carefully placed during the chip design placement stage in order to avoid unnecessary electromagnetic coupling and faulty logic latching. Traditional separate signal and power integrity analysis methodologies are no longer sufficient due to the close proximity of the power and signal distribution network. In order to accurately predict the performance of 2.5D/3D packages, a new design paradigm shift is needed to toggle 2.5D/3D system performance optimization. New design and modeling approaches along with new breeds of computational electromagnetic EDA tools, are paramount to predicting the performance of 2.5D/3D packages.","PeriodicalId":302936,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122445872","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 develop an analytical model to capture the impact of NBTI in the presence of PV for use in architecture simulations. We capture the following aspects in the model: i) variation in NBTI related to stress and recovery due to workloads, ii) temporal variation in NBTI due to Random Charge Fluctuation (RCF) and iii) Random Dopant Fluctuation (RDF) due to process variation. We use this model to analyze the combined impact of NBTI and PV on a memory structure (register file) and a logic structure (Kogge-Stone adder). We show that the impact of the threshold voltage variations due to NBTI and PV over the nominal degradation can hurt the yield of the structures. Due to the combined effect of NBTI and PV across different benchmarks, 26 to 117 bits fail in a 8Kb size register file and the execution delay increases by 18% to 28% in a Kogge-Stone adder. We then discuss the implications of these results for architecture-level reliability techniques.","PeriodicalId":302936,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":"26 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122640262","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}
