The use of multiple-patterning (MP) optical lithography for sub-20 nm technologies has inevitably become slow to adopt the next generation of lithography systems. The biggest technical challenge of MP is failure to reach a manufacturable layout-color

Process-induced mechanical stress is used to enhance carrier transport and achieve higher drive currents in current complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technologies. This paper explores how to fully exploit the layout dependence of stress enhance

Increased buffer insertion along on-chip global lines and growing amounts of leakage power have resulted in buffer-based leakage emerging as one of the chief contributors to system leakage power. In this paper, a bus system prototype is implemented i

A method for modeling the effects of random process variation through measured transistor current is introduced. The methodology culminates by modeling random current variation at a given operating point above threshold as a zero-mean Additive White

We present a technique for fast characterization of the statistical mean and sigma of parametric variations. The technique uses a scan chain to sequentially cycle through a device array, creating a periodic waveform that can be directly measured usin

Statistical circuit analysis and optimization are critical for robust nanoscale CMOS design. To accurately perform such analysis, primary process variation sources need to be identified and modeled for further circuit simulation. In this work, a rigo

Random microscopic fluctuations in the number and location of dopant atoms can cause a large variation in the threshold voltage (VT) of a MOS device. In this paper, we present a technique for fast characterization of random threshold voltage mismatch

Variation is a significant concern in nanometer-scale CMOS due to manufacturing equipment being pushed to fundamental limits, particularly in lithography. In this paper, we review recent work in coping with variation, through both improved analysis a

The impact of process variation on SRAM yield has become a serious concern in scaled technologies. In this paper, we propose a methodology to analyze the stability of an SRAM cell in the presence of random fluctuations in the device parameters. First
