Abstract :
A low power 45nm fully-depleted SOI technology is demonstrated for the first time on 300mm SOI wafers, using direct metal gate on high k dielectric and selective silicon epitaxy. Short p-channel devices exhibit very good performance. SRAM bit cells are fully functional down to 0.525μm2 with good SNM and low leakage.
