For the first time, we analyse SRAM cells made of ferroelectric based negative capacitance (NC) FinFETs considering both global and local variability via Monte-Carlo circuit simulations. First compare explain impact on device characteristics extracted figures merit conventional NC transistors. Then show that suppressed relative in NCFETs leads to lowering static Vmin (minimum supply voltage nee...

The growth of battery-powered mobile and wearable devices has increased the importance of low-power operation and cost in system-on-a-chip (SoC) design. Supply-voltage scaling is the predominant approach to active power reduction for SoC design, including voltage scaling for on-die memory given increasing levels of memory integration. SRAM can limit the minimum operating voltage (VMIN) of a des...

The technology scaling impact on FinFET-based Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) components (Flip-Flops and Multiplexers) and cluster metrics is evaluated for technology nodes starting from 20 nm down to 7 nm. Power consumption, delay and energy (Power Delay Product, or PDP) trends are reported with FinFET technology scaling. Cluster metrics are then evaluated based on three benchmarking circ...
