| Abstract | 22FDX™ is the industry's first FDSOI technology architected to meet the requirements of emerging mobile, Internet-of-Things (IoT), and RF applications. This platform achieves the power and performance efficiency of a 16/14nm FinFET technology in a cost effective, planar device architecture that can be implemented with ?30% fewer masks. Performance comes from a second generation FDSOI transistor, which produces nFET (pFET) drive currents of 910??/?m (856??/?m) at 0.8 V and 100nA/?m Ioff. For ultra-low power applications, it offers low-voltage operation down to 0.4V Vmin for 8T logic libraries, as well as 0.62V and 0.52V Vmin for high-density and high-current bitcells, ultra-low leakage devices approaching 1pA/?m Ioff, and body-biasing to actively trade-off power and performance. Superior RF/Analog characteristics to FinFET are achieved including high fT/fMAx of 375GHz/290GHz and 260GHz/250GHz for nFET and pFET, respectively. The high fMAx extends the capabilities to 5G and milli-meter wave (>,24GHz) RF applications. © 2016 IEEE. |
