  • Abstract
    Scaling with Moore´s law is taking us to feature sizes of 32nm and smaller. At these technology nodes designers are faced with an explosion in design complexity at all levels. In this tutorial we discuss three somewhat novel and particularly confounding dimensions of this complexity; electrical complexity, manufacturing complexity and reliability complexity.
