Abstract:
Development of an industry leading 10nm CMOS process technology with the highest reported drive currents and cell densities involved numerous enabling innovations, judicious choice of design rules, novel features, and most importantly a relentless pursuit of performance-reliability co-optimization. This paper reports that Intel's 10nm technology achieved scaling benefit over its preceding 14nm generation at matched or better transistor reliability. An elaborate study of the challenges to scaling is presented, which once addressed, enabled meeting aggressive technology reliability targets.
