Physical Design and Reliability Issues in
Nanoscale Analog CMOS Technologies
Abstract
In nanoscale analog CMOS design there is no good substitute for understanding
reliability stress factors or the many effects related to the circuit physical layout
which can cause significant design-for-reliability (DFR), performance (DFP), or
manufacturability (DFM) yield degradation.
Circuit simulation tools presently
lack the capability to predict the effect of several stress and reliability effects,
including TDDB, HCI, NBTI, etc.
Physical design deficiencies found after post-
layout-extraction results in re-layout and a waste of the industries most valuable
commodity: time to market.
This tutorial presents an overview of these effects
on nanoscale analog circuit design and also explores how to alter circuit
topologies and device geometries to mitigate them. Additionally, methods for
extending device terminal voltage limits under certain conditions beyond
foundry-specified voltage limits will be explored.
Outline:
13.00 Nanoscale CMOS physical design and device trends
13.30 Device scaling - dimensionless circuit and physical design
14.00 Mitigation of nanoscale device mismatch and C-DAC matching errors
14.40 Nanoscale device reliability issues – digital vs. analog lifetime limits
15.00 Coffee
15.20 Time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) in startup and standby
15.30 Obtaining additional device voltage headroom in CHE mode
15.50 HCI stress in CHISEL mode – where Vsb>0
16.10 Negative/Positive bias temperature instability (NBTI/PBTI)
16.20 Electromigration (EM) limits on nanoscale CMOS device geometry
16.50 Summary and Conclusions

honor and M.S.E.E. California
Institute of Technology. Ph.D. E.E.
Stanford (CIS) 1984.
His work at
Stanford on physical limits of VLSI
circuits resulted in publication of the
first closed-form solution for the MOS
device surface potential that was
continuous from weak to strong
inversion.
Past work includes an 18b CMOS
DAC design licensed to Toshiba for
early 4x OS audio disc players, a
14b CMOS ADC used by DSL
industry-pioneers PairGain and
Alcatel, and a 1.2 mW, a 16b CMOS
ADC x36-array in an image
processing ASIC recently installed in
the Hubble main survey camera
(ACS).
His current work includes
overcoming device voltage
limitations in nanometer analog
CMOS circuits and the design of the
next generation >10b 1GSPS 28nm
CMOS pipeline ADC IP, including
low jitter clock distribution, for the
SnowBush IP Division of Gennum,
Toronto.
Past positions include Manager,

of Globespan Inc.
He is currently president of Lewyn
Consulting Inc. (LCI) in Laguna
Beach, CA, is a course instructor for
the Mead Education Group in the
subjects of reliability and physical
design in nanoscale CMOS
technologies, and serves on the
technical advisory boards of the
