  1. מודלים של חיבורי ביניים • מודלים חשמליים של חיבורי ביניים עבור מעגליVLSI פרופ’ יוסי שחם המחלקה לאלקטרוניקה פיזיקלית, אוניברסיטת ת”א.

  2. Device scaling laws

  3. Interconnect scaling laws

  4. Example: Al and oxide technology • Typical scaling factor over 4 years are: • S=0.6, f=2, D=1.3, • Since the metal and the dielectric materials are the same: • rloc=2/3, r=1, k=1. • The intrinsic gate delay drops by a factor of 0.6 • The local interconnect delay drops by 2/3 • The global interconnect delay increases by krD2/S2=4.69

  5. Example: Switching to Cu and low-k technology • Typical scaling factor over 4 years are: • S=0.6, f=2, D=1.3, • The metal and the dielectric materials have been changed, • The local interconnect technology has not changed: • rloc=2/3, r~1/2, k~1/2. • The intrinsic gate delay drops by a factor of 0.6 • The local interconnect delay drops by 1/3 • The global interconnect delay increases by krD2/S2=1.17

  6. The signal propagation effect • The signal can not propagate faster than the speed of the electromagnetic wave: Vc • The speed of the electromagnetic wave: Vc is proportional to 1/(LC)1/2 The inductance L is constant while the capacitance is proportional to k. Therefore:

  7. Effect of scaling on Timing • Clock frequency increases • The global interconnect delay becomes dominant • Coupling capacitance becomes important • Inductance becomes an issue • Clock skew variations limits the clock frequency

  8. Gate and Interconnect delays

  9. Effect of scaling on noise 1. Cross talk - signal propagation to neighboring wires 2. Simultaneous switching noise on the power line 3. Charge sharing effects - affects mostly dynamic logic 4. Leakage current - affects DRAM and switch capacitor filters.

  10. Effect of scaling on the power 1. Higher frequency - higher power dissipation (P) 2. Lowering VDD is a solution - limited by noise margins. 3. Higher capacitance increases P 4. Lowering threshold improves margins but increases the leakage current 5. Higher CMOS transition current and dissipation

  11. Effect of scaling on the reliability 1. Higher power per unit area --> higher working temperature 2. Higher current density --> higher electromigration 3. Higher interconnect stress levels --> stress voiding

  12. Interconnect models R=r L/A • Resistors: At higher frequency the skin effect reduces the interconnect cross section. The skin depth, d, is defined by the penetration distance at which the current density drops by 1/e: Where f is the frequency, r is the resistivity and m is the magnetic permeability

  13. Interconnect models • Capacitors: C=e0er A/d • Inductors: Inductors are more difficult to calculate. Some models will be described I the next lecture.
