As technology nodes shrink to 90 nanometers and below, chips become much more difficult to manufacture. In-die process variations increase substantially at 90 nm — even more at 65 nm. If these effects ...

A new RC oscillator IP allows the frequency to be trimmed to remove the effects of process variation; it can also be configured as a free-running clock (FRC) where a high-accuracy clock is not ...

Silicon photonics is rapidly emerging as a promising technology to enable higher bandwidth, lower energy, and lower latency communication and information processing, and other applications. In silicon ...

SE: Especially with advanced nodes, there are many types of variation in the process and today’s design and verification tools have to understand this. How does variation impact the sphere of your ...
