This paper presents experimental data and analyses from the oscillation frequency of CMOS ring oscillators (ROs). The measurements are analyzed in order to separate the coefficient of variation (CV = σ/μ) behavior of both within-die (WID) process variations and Die-to-Die (D2D) process variations. Three different RO's sizes distributed over a total of 96 ROs per chip were measured in 32 different chip samples, all from a single MOSIS Multi-Project-wafer in a commercial 65nm CMOS process. All ROs were measured with varying power supply voltages, from nominal VDD (1.2V) down to nearthreshold (0.45V), resulting in a sample space of 18.432 points of interest. Statistical analysis results are shown regarding each RO stage size, the applied power supply and the correlation of both to the WID and D2D variations. The increase on D2D and WID coefficients of variations at the near-threshold supplies is very significant, as explained by increased delay variability at the moderate inversion regime of the FETs. The 96 test ROs occupy a total area of 200 x 480 μm2 in each test chip.
本文从CMOS环形振荡器的振荡频率出发,给出了实验数据并进行了分析。为了分离模内(WID)工艺变化和模间(D2D)工艺变化的变异系数(CV = σ/μ),对测量结果进行了分析。在32个不同的芯片样品中测量了分布在每个芯片上总共96个RO的三种不同RO的尺寸,所有这些都来自单个MOSIS multi - project晶圆,采用商用65nm CMOS工艺。所有ROs都是在不同的电源电压下测量的,从标称VDD (1.2V)到近阈值(0.45V),得到18.432个兴趣点的样本空间。统计分析结果显示了每个RO阶段规模,应用电源以及两者与WID和D2D变化的相关性。近阈值电源变化的D2D和WID系数的增加是非常显著的,正如在fet的中等反转状态下增加的延迟可变性所解释的那样。96个测试ROs在每个测试芯片中占据200 × 480 μm2的总面积。

This work describes a procedure for evaluating the mismatch between MOSFET transistors in a test array and connected as stacked-pairs. The transistor mismatch is characterized by measuring the gate voltage dependence of the DC voltage established at the middle node of the common-gate MOSFET stacked-pair. This procedure is modeled as the on-resistance ratio of these two transistors and it is performed by two simple measurements. Various pieces of information on the MOSFET mismatch characteristics (e.g., channel length variation and threshold voltage variation) can be extracted. The test structure was manufactured in 180nm CMOS technology, and the test array was designed to allow a large number of MOSFET stacked-pairs, from transistors placed in different parts of the layout to vary gradually the distance of the paired FETs.
本工作描述了一种评估测试阵列中MOSFET晶体管与堆叠对连接之间失配的程序。通过测量在共栅MOSFET堆叠对中间节点建立的直流电压对栅极电压的依赖性来表征晶体管失配。这一过程被建模为这两个晶体管的导通电阻比,并通过两个简单的测量来完成。可以提取关于MOSFET失配特性的各种信息(例如,通道长度变化和阈值电压变化)。测试结构采用180nm CMOS技术制造,测试阵列设计允许大量的MOSFET堆叠对,从晶体管放置在布局的不同部分开始,逐渐改变成对fet的距离。

Is intrinsic noise a limiting factor for subthreshold digital logic in nanoscale CMOS? 内禀噪声是纳米级CMOS亚阈值数字逻辑的限制因素吗?

Intrinsic noise has been predicted as a limit to CMOS scaling. If this is the case, the effect would be more severe at low supply voltages, such as the ones applied in subthreshold digital circuits. In this work the effect of intrinsic noise in subthreshold digital nanoscale CMOS is analysed for the first time. Key issues such as variability and the actual bandwidth of the studied circuits are taken into account. Most of previous works overestimate the impact of intrinsic noise due to the use of simplified models of the MOS transistor. BSIM4 transistor model and PTM model files are used in order to correctly calculate noise RMS voltage at the output node of an inverter, which has not been done before in the subthreshold region. Technology scaling impact is explored by simulating technology nodes from 130 nm down to 16 nm and considering variability down to 32 nm. Simulation results show that variability strongly increases the minimum operating voltage of subthreshold digital nanoscale CMOS and thus making intrinsic noise not a problem, at least down to 32 nm, since commutation voltage maintains high enough to achieve negligible failure rates.
固有噪声已经被预测为CMOS缩放的限制。如果是这样的话,在低电源电压下,比如在亚阈值数字电路中应用的电压,这种影响会更严重。本文首次分析了本征噪声对亚阈值数字纳米级CMOS的影响。关键问题,如可变性和实际带宽的研究电路被考虑在内。由于使用简化的MOS晶体管模型,以往的工作大多高估了固有噪声的影响。为了正确计算逆变器输出节点的噪声均方根电压,采用了BSIM4晶体管模型和PTM模型文件,这在亚阈值区域是前所未有的。通过模拟从130纳米到16纳米的技术节点,并考虑到32纳米的可变性,探讨了技术缩放影响。仿真结果表明,可变性极大地提高了亚阈值数字纳米级CMOS的最小工作电压,从而使固有噪声不再是问题,至少降低到32 nm,因为换相电压保持足够高,可以实现可忽略不计的故障率。

This In this paper, we present a new inverter topology in order to decrease the process variability influence on performances of a ring oscillator. Using FDSOI technology, we used the back-gate electrode of the transistor to symmetrize the output of a complementary inverter. This technique will reduce the variability of the inverter and the jitter (i.e. the phase noise) of the ring oscillator. Complementary cells allow us to implement back-gate auto-biasing feedback without adding transistors and to realize a quadrature ring oscillator with an even number of inverters.
本文提出了一种新的逆变器拓扑结构,以减少过程变异性对环形振荡器性能的影响。使用FDSOI技术,我们使用晶体管的后门电极来对称互补逆变器的输出。这种技术将减少逆变器的可变性和抖动(即环形振荡器的相位噪声)。互补单元允许我们在不增加晶体管的情况下实现反向自偏置反馈,并实现具有偶数逆变器的正交环振荡器。

An application-specific NBTI ageing analysis method 一种针对具体应用的NBTI老化分析方法
Pub Date : 2015-09-01 DOI: 10.1109/VARI.2015.7456553

There is growing concern about time-dependent performance variations of CMOS devices due to ageing-induced delay degradation. One of the main causes of ageing is Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI). Existing models which predict the impact of NBTI on overall system performance assume a generic stress-recovery ratio of input signals of 50%. Such an assumption can cause misleading predictions about how a circuit's performance will degrade over time and more importantly which parts of the system will be most affected. This work develops a novel NBTI ageing analysis which is based on accurate calculations of the stress-recovery ratios for applicationspecific systems. The proposed method is employed to predict the ageing of an ARM processor synthesised to 90nm technology. Our results show the proposed ageing analysis techniques can significantly reduce prediction errors (e.g. 39% for one of the critical paths) compared to the generic models, it can also identify more accurately the parts of the system which are most vulnerable to ageing.
由于老化引起的延迟退化,CMOS器件的性能随时间变化越来越受到关注。老化的主要原因之一是负偏置温度不稳定性(NBTI)。现有的预测NBTI对系统整体性能影响的模型假设输入信号的一般应力恢复比为50%。这样的假设可能会导致对电路性能如何随时间下降的误导性预测,更重要的是,系统的哪些部分将受到最大影响。这项工作开发了一种新的NBTI老化分析,该分析基于对特定应用系统的应力恢复比的精确计算。将该方法应用于90纳米工艺合成的ARM处理器的老化预测。我们的研究结果表明,与一般模型相比,提出的老化分析技术可以显著降低预测误差(例如,其中一条关键路径的预测误差为39%),它还可以更准确地识别系统中最容易老化的部分。

The delay dependency of digital circuits on process, voltage and temperature variations are usually compensated by using safety margins that set the limit of operating supply voltage or clock frequency. Razor enables the processor to operate beyond this safety margin through the utilization of error detection and recovery circuits. In this paper, a single chip dual ARM9 core solution, with and without Razor, is implemented in 65nm CMOS to accurately characterize the added resiliency introduced by Razor. Functionality testing on the same operating environment allows for a fair characterization by isolating delay dependencies caused by PVT variations.
数字电路的延迟依赖于过程、电压和温度变化,通常通过使用安全裕度来补偿,安全裕度设定了工作电源电压或时钟频率的限制。Razor通过使用错误检测和恢复电路,使处理器能够超出此安全范围。在本文中,一个单芯片双ARM9核心解决方案,带和不带Razor,在65nm CMOS中实现,以准确表征Razor引入的额外弹性。在相同的操作环境上进行功能测试,通过隔离由PVT变化引起的延迟依赖,可以获得公平的特性描述。

We describe a global methodology for the extraction and the quantification of the effects of the most relevant equipment parameters involved in TSV processing. With a specific focus on the DRIE step of the TSVs' fabrication, we propose a dedicated simulation flow describing the distribution of the species over the wafer inside the etching chamber, the physical plasma simulation of polymer deposition and etching loops, and the electrical performance simulation of the resulting structures. Statistical techniques such as Pareto Graphs and Design of Experiments are used for the extraction of the most relevant equipment parameters on the electrical and metal stress responses.

Due to the effects of the Moore's law, the process variations in current technologies are increasing and have a major impact on power and performance which results in parametric yield loss. Due to this, process variability and the difficulty of modeling accurately transistor behavior impede the dimensions scaling benefits. The Fully Depleted Silicon-On- Insulator (FDSOI) technology is one of the main contenders for deep submicron devices as they can operate at low voltage with superior energy efficiency compared with bulk CMOS. In this paper, we study the static energy on 28nm FDSOI devices to implement sub-threshold circuits. Study of delay vs. static power trade-off reveals the FDSOI robustness with respect to process variations.

A noise suppressing filter design technique to reduce deconvolution error of both-directions downward sloped asymmetrical long-tail distribution of the Random Telegraph Noise (RTN) is proposed. The filter is used in Lucy-Richardson-deconvolution (LRDec) iteration process. The deconvolution is required for inversely analyzing RTN long tail distribution effects on VLSI time-dependent operating margin. The proposed noise suppressing filters avoid unwanted phase misalignment between the distribution curves of feedback gain and deconvolution target for right and left tails. This results in reduction of its relative deconvolution errors by about 12-fold compared with the conventional LRDec. The accuracy of the fail-bit-count (FBC) prediction is increased by about 100-fold.

The accuracy of the fail-bit-count (FBC) prediction is increased by about 100-fold.","PeriodicalId":299950,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Workshop on CMOS Variability (VARI)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121112620","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}

Power supply noise in current nanometer technologies represents a growing risk, specially because of the uncertainties it produces in the critical paths delays which can result in erroneous computations. To tackle with these issues and to have a better power management, power supply monitors are necessary. Traditional approaches use an external reference or are very sensitive to temperature and process variations. In this work we propose a monitor that works without an external reference and is hardened against thermal and process variations. The sensor was designed in the 40 nm CMOS technology node, operating at 1.1 V and has been validated for a temperature range of -40 °C to 125 °C covering all process corners. The sensor is able to detect voltage fluctuations of at least 45 mV, wider than 300 ps in the worst technology corner with a maximum latency of 600 ps and an energy consumption per measurement of 2.64 pJ.
在当前的纳米技术中,电源噪声代表着越来越大的风险,特别是因为它在关键路径中产生的不确定性,延迟可能导致错误的计算。为了解决这些问题并拥有更好的电源管理,电源监视器是必要的。传统方法使用外部参考或对温度和工艺变化非常敏感。在这项工作中,我们提出了一种没有外部参考的监视器,它可以抵抗热量和工艺变化。该传感器采用40 nm CMOS技术节点设计,工作电压为1.1 V,并在-40°C至125°C的温度范围内进行了验证,覆盖了所有工艺角落。该传感器能够检测至少45 mV的电压波动,在最坏的技术角中宽度大于300 ps,最大延迟为600 ps,每次测量的能耗为2.64 pJ。
