Can CMOS resist the BiCMOS challenge?

It is pointed out that the traditional CMOS-BiCMOS comparison of isolated circuits driving capacitive loads is not adequate. When multistage circuits and chip wiring resistance are also considered, CMOS is shown to be very competitive. In a high-performance BiCMOS logic chip design, 96% of the circuits can be converted to CMOS. For low-capacitance nets and nets with enough delay margin, CMOS is the clear preference due to its better density, circuit simplicity, lower sensitivity to wiring resistance, lower dl/dt and clear migration path to the next technology generation. CMOS is expected to remain the dominant circuit type for logic
