As
foundries are now offering advanced IC manufacturing processes, fabless
customers will have to decide whether to design and manufacture their next
microchips around the current stable process or to move to a different one at
5nm and the upcoming 3nm. As 7nm is stable and already in successful use by
semiconductor companies, the path to further advanced nodes, like 3nm is still
convoluted due to the fact that foundries are still working on its
breakthroughs. In general, manufacturing of any of these nodes will be very
expensive, and benefits are not always clear-cut. At advanced nodes, 7nm/5nm
processes using today’s FinFet (Fin Field-Effect Transistors) transistors that
when compared to traditional planar transistors, are 3D-like structures with
better performance and lower leakage. 5nm (nanometer) process is well defined
and being offered by TSMC and Samsung since 2019.
The
5nm node is based on multi-gate MOSFET (MuGFET) technology, with FinFETs
devices. The 3nm technology however, is a game changer. At 3nm, the FinFet
device is to be replaced by a new transistor architecture called a nanosheet
FET, which is an evolution of the FinFet and has been proposed by IBM Research.
Foundries are currently still evaluating 3nm technology challenges, looking
into factors like advanced packaging as a possible scaling option.
"GBT
decided to enhance its Epsilon reliability software package, preparing for
advanced nodes like 5nm and the upcoming 3nm. This is a major decision since
7nm and 5nm are still a traditional FinFet approach, but with the upcoming 3nm
is another device architecture. We believe that now is the time to get prepared
for manufacturing nodes beyond 7nm and 5nm,” stated Danny Rittman, GBT CTO.
"Alpha
and the Company took a decision that involves implementation of a new
technology phenomenon, making our Epsilon reliability program capable of
providing accurate analysis and correction. Alpha and the Company are
implementing new algorithms and flows which we believe is an evolutionary step
from the traditional FinFets. This upcoming node will create major design
challenges, yet it will provide significant higher performance, and lower power
consumption. These are critical when it comes to advanced ICs. The new
transistors will be more difficult to make, expensive, and the migration will
be painful, but it'll be worth it. This will able to put more devices on
silicon, consuming less power and with much higher performance. Together, we
are now planning to update our Epsilon software, ensuring on-the-fly
reliability check for upcoming future microchips. With these upcoming processes
Alpha will have to take into account new physics challenges and phenomenon in
order to make these chips reliable and working at optimal conditions. Alpha
plans to implement the Company’s machine learning technology as a key factor to
study and analyze circuitries including their weak spots, taking into account
physics aspects. Epsilon is expected to provide reliability alerts and
corrections suggestions, early during the design phase. The Company’s AI engine
will be trained with new reliability models, adapting to advanced processes,
based on physics-of-failure mechanisms. It is intended to identify weak thermal
spots, predicting potential reliability failures, check for Electromigration
(EM), Self heat and voltage (IR) Drop phenomenon, providing the ultimate
reliability-aware IC design environment. We believe in early design stage
reliability analysis and predictions, early addressing and auto-correction,
which will become a key player when designing modern chips, especially with the
upcoming 5nm and 3nm manufacturing processes. In these nodes, chips can
overheat, perform poorly or fail and manufacturers will need to be well
prepared; the sooner, the better," added Mr. Rittman.
