摘要
This paper presents an overview of process variation effects, including examples of mitigation strategies and test methods. Experimental and theoretical comparisons are presented for 45nm and 65nm RDF. SRAM matching and interconnect variation is discussed for both 65nm and 45nm, including examples of process and design mitigation strategies. Use of ring oscillators for detailed measurement of within-wafer and within-die variation is illustrated for 65nm and 45nm products.
