Abstract :
A common platform technology at 65 nm is described. The platform consists of a low-power CMOS base technology with a broad menu of optional features including high- performance passive devices, standard cell libraries, SRAM compilers and a process design kit enabling custom design. These elements enable competitive leadership technology for ASICs and Foundry applications, resulting in a highly competitive technology that is an excellent choice when performance and cost must be balanced.
