Variability in nanometer CMOS: Impact, analysis, and minimization
Variation is a significant concern in nanometer-scale CMOS due to manufacturing equipment being pushed to fundamental limits, particularly in lithography. In this paper, we review...

Physically clustered forward body biasing for variability compensation in nanometer CMOS design
Nanometer CMOS scaling has resulted in greatly increased circuit variability, with extremely adverse consequences on design predictability and yield. A number of recent works have...

Nanometer MOSFET effects on the minimum-energy point of 45nm subthreshold logic
In this paper, we observe that minimum energy Emin of subthreshold logic dramatically increases when reaching 45 nm node. We demonstrate by circuit simulation and analytical model...

Design tool solutions for mixed-signal/RF circuit design in CMOS nanometer technologies
The scaling of CMOS technology into the nanometer era enables the fabrication of highly integrated systems, which increasingly contain analog and/or RF parts. However, scaling into...
