Abstract

65nm Deeply Depleted Channel (DDCTM) transistors have been fabricated with a halo-free, un-doped epitaxial channel and enable reduced threshold voltage (VT) variation, lower supply voltage (V CC), enhanced body effect and IEFF. Digital circuits made using this technology show benefits ranging from 47% power reduction to 38% frequency increase. Analog circuits exhibit 4x greater amplifier gain despite lower VDD, and current mirror mismatch (both global and local) shows 40% and 30% reduction for NMOS and PMOS, respectively.
