Abstract :
The process architecture and device characteristics of a submicrometer CMOS n+/p+ poly gate, Ti-salicide, double-metal technology are described. Tradeoffs among circuit shrinkability, device gain, and hot-carrier-injection susceptibility are discussed. This technology has been successfully implemented in a 0.8-μm unified-design-rule high-performance high-end MPU product
