BiNMOS-CBA: An optimum solution for high performance EDP and telecom applications

So far, the ASIC industry has looked at only traditional approaches, such as CMOS and BiCMOS gate array and standard cell, to solve various design issues. The authors discuss a detailed investigation that resulted in an innovative cell based array (CBA) architecture: BiNMOS-CBA with highly efficient CMOS compute cells and performance optimized drive cells with bipolar and NMOS transistors.<
