System Drivers • Circuit-level FOMs related to device technology FOMs • Low-noise amplifier (LNA) • Voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) • Power amplifier (PA) • Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) • Serializer-Deserializer (SerDes) • Example PA, LNA FOM
CMOS • Reflect the RF & Analog performance of PIDS technologies • fT, fMAX, NFMIN, analog gain, flicker noise, matching • Capture parasitic resistances and capacitances using Interconnect & FEP roadmaps. • fTincreases faster compared to 2009 roadmap No change for 2012 2013: • TCAD-based model following PIDS methods • Need to account for realistic layout & resulting parasitic impedances
Bipolar 2012 update : Minor changes in the table have occurred • High-Speed NPN • fT increase delayed by one year and related parameters (WE, BVCEO, BVCBO, JC at peak fT, NFMIN and SLi updated accordingly) • fMAX and MAG/MSG values unchanged 2.High-Speed PNP • No change in data • Coloring updated for fLE (linearity efficiency) 2013 update : Major changes expected for HS NPN • High-Speed NPN • Move to a simulation-based roadmap using TCAD + Compact modeling • Move to performance plateaus (3 to 4 years) linked to driving applications • Evaluation of the impact of BEOL parasictics on RF FoM (common to CMOS) 2. High-Speed PNP • Move to performance plateaus too • FOM & data update
III-V technologies • Analog, Microwave, mm-wave applications • Emphasis on mm-wave • Production dates of scaled InP HEMT, InP HBT and GaN HEMT shifted one year (release date driven by ‘pull’ for technology) • Technology roadmaps truncated at expected end of scaling • GaAs PHEMT(2015), GaAs Power MHEMT(2019), InP Power HEMT(2023), • Low Noise GaAs MHEMT and InP HEMT, InP HBT and GaN HEMT expected to continue scaling • For FETs, currently D-mode only, plan to add E-mode device in 2013 revision • FOMs depending on technology • fT, fMAX, gm, VBD, • Power, gain, efficiency @ 10, 24, 60, 94, 140, 220 GHz • NFMIN, GA @ 10, 24, 60, 94 GHz • LNA NF, GA @ 140, 220 GHz
HVMOS • New section in 2011, membership with this expertise doubled this month • HVNMOS & HVPMOS devices • Power-management & Display-driver applications • FOM • Now: BVDSS,RON x area,Integrated CMOS node • Leave roadmap as-is for 2012 • Expand application space to higher voltages • Add Automotive and Industrial applications • Revise roadmap for 2013: devices & FOMs • Will impact passive device roadmap
Passive Devices • No major revisions since 2009 • 2012 • Keep table framework – treating on-chip passives • Refresh FOM values vs time • 2013 • Synchronize with application-based framework of chapter • Capture unique requirements of example applications • Reflect Silicon, HVMOS & III-V capability
Outlook & future considerations • Medical applications • Non-MEMs Sensors • Imaging • Automotive, Industrial & Instrumentation • Define primitive functions needed to implement applications in the roadmap • Apply also to emerging device technologies
