Scaling
Jul
9, • To move from one process to another
20

scaling is essential.
• VLSI fabrication technology is still in the
process of evolution which is leading to
smaller line widths and feature size and to

higher packing density of circuitry on a


chip.
• The scaling down of feature size generally
leads to improved performance and it is
important therefore to understand the
effects of scaling. 2
Jul

characterized in terms of several
indicators, or figures of merit. Commonly,
the following are used:
• Minimum feature size

• Number of gates on one chip


• Power dissipation
• Maximum operational frequency .
• Die size
• Production cost.

• Many of these figures of merit can be
improved by
• shrinking the dimensions of transistors,

• interconnections and
• the separation between features,
• and by adjusting the doping levels and
supply voltages.

• The most commonly used models are the
constant electric field scaling model and
the constant voltage scaling model.
• Recently, a combined voltage and

dimension scaling model has been


presented.
