22FDX: A Technology Alternative to the Mainstream Optimized for IoT Applications
Jürgen Faul
GLOBALFOUNDRIES Fab1 LLC & Co. KG, DE
ABSTRACT
Serving the new trend in semiconductor industries to connect everything with everything, computing power does not matter as much as low leakage and/or low dynamic power at low cost.
GLOBALFOUNDRIES offers a technology with less complexity than FinFET, same gate length scaling enabled by fully-depleted channels, but with additional features like back-gate biasing which perfectly suits the IoT market needs.
Back-biasing is unique to FDSOI technologies and provides an additional degree of freedom to circuit and chip designers. Prominent examples for back-biasing utilization are extremely low Vdd operation and chip-level global corner trimming, static by OTP or eFuse as well as dynamic for power and temperature compensation.
This talk will give an overview on technology capabilities and features.
