  1. Access to 65nm Technology through CERN SandroBonacini, Kostas Kloukinas, Alessandro Marchioro, CERN, PH-ESE dept. CH1211, Geneve 23 Switzerland

  2. Overview of Technologies • Foundry services & Technology technical support provided by CERN. CMOS 8RF-LM Low cost technology for Large Digital designs CMOS 8RF-DM Low cost technology for Analog & RF designs BiCMOS 8WLCost effective technology for Low Power RF designs BiCMOS 8HP High Performance technology for demanding RF designs CMOS 9SF LP/RF High performance technology for dense designs 130nm CMOS 90nm CMOS CMOS 65 LP High performance technology for dense designs • Mainstream technology CMOS8RF-DM (130nm) • Full support: CERN compiled Mixed-Signal design kit • Advance technology CMOS9LP/RF (90nm) • Limited support: Project specific. • Development of a “lightweight” standard cell library is in progress. • Future technology CMOS10 (65nm) • Plans to evaluate 65 nm processes for SLHC applications. • Access to Physical Design Kit. • No user support yet. 65nm CMOS Kostas.Kloukinas@cern.ch

  3. 65nm Technology • The TSMC 65nm technology is a candidate technology. • Radiation Tolerance Qualification work is in progress Test Results are being presented at TWEPP 2011: • “Characterization of a commercial 65nm CMOS technology for SLHC applications”by Sandro Bonacini, on Thursday 29/9 • “News on SEU test in 90nm & 65nm technologies”by Sandro Bonacini, on SEU MUG session • Negotiations are in progress with IMEC and the foundry to obtain access to IP libraries • Development of a Mixed Signal Design Kit integrating foundry IP libraries having the physical layout views available. Kostas.Kloukinas@cern.ch

  4. 65nm Technology • We plan to offer: • A Mixed Signal Design Kit that supports the same design work flows as the 130nm design Kit. • Provide access to memory compiler services. • Provide access to foundry services via IMEC. • MPWs, Engineering runs, Production runs. • Decide on a unique set of technology options. • Preliminary selection of Technology options: • TSMC 65nm LP (Low Power), LO (logic), with 6 metal layers. • Core vdd: 1.2V, IO vdd: 2.5V, 3.3V • NRE cost is strongly modulated by extra technology options. • Very costly to support multiple design kits of different technology options.
