Abstract :
A 0.35 μm logic technology has been developed with high performance transistors and four layers of planarized metal interconnect. A 2.5 V version offers lower power and higher performance. A 3.3 V BiCMOS version has been optimized for compatibility with previous designs implemented in a 0.6 μm 3.3 V BiCMOS process. The design process for converting an existing production worthy 0.6 μm 3.3 V BiCMOS design is described. The silicon results are described
