CHIPS ARE JUST ROCKS
The base material of a chip is usually silicon, although
materials such as sapphire and gallium arsenide are also
used. Silicon is found in quartz rocks and is purified in a
molten state. It is then chemically combined (doped) with
other materials to alter its electrical properties. The result
is a silicon crystal ingot up to 12 inches in diameter that is
either positively (p-type) or negatively charged (n-type).
Slices of the ingot approximately 1/30th of an inch thick
are cut from this "crystal salami." The slices are called
"wafers."
Silicon, the principal ingredient in
beach sand, is a natural
semiconductor and the most
abundant element on Earth except
for oxygen.
Driving all forms of digital innovation
Intel chips power Ultrabook™ devices, smartphones,
tablets, high performance computing, data centers,
and the Internet. They automate factories and are
embedded in automobiles and everyday devices.
The most sophisticated processor can contain
hundreds of millions or billions of transistors
interconnected by fine wires made of copper. Each
of these transistors acts as an on/off switch,
controlling the flow of electricity through the chip to
send, receive, and process information. Chips today
may have multiple cores.

• A pattern of interconnected switches and gates on the surface of a crystal of semiconductor (typically Si)
• These switches and gates are made of
– areas of n-type silicon
– areas of p-type silicon
– areas of insulator
– lines of conductor (interconnects) joining areas together

INTRODUCTON TO VLSI DESIGN
• Brief History - TTL (Transistor-Transistor logic).
First successful IC logic family
Composed largest fraction of digital IC market until 80’s.
Power consumption per gate set upper limit on integration density.
- I2L (Integrated Injection Logic):
An attempt to provide a high integration density, low power bipolar
family of logic.
- MOS (Metal-Oxide-Silicon): Actually, we use polysilicon for gates now.
- PMOS-only used through early 70’s.
- In 1974, the 8080 microprocessor was implemented using faster NMOS only.
- Late 70’s, NMOS-only started suffering from same problem as high density
bipolar technology -- power consumption.
- CMOS was first !
Complexity of manufacturing process delayed use until 80’s.
Since early 80’s, CMOS remains the technology of choice.
However, power consumption is now becoming a problem.
And there is no new technology around the corner to alleviate the problem.

Evolution of IC Technologies ..1/2
• Bipolar technology
– TTL (transistor-transistor logic)
– ECL (emitter-coupled logic)
– I2L (Integrated Injection Logic)
• MOS (Metal-oxide-silicon)
– PMOS-only used through early 70’s.
– In 1974, the 8080 microprocessor was implemented using faster NMOS only.
– nMOS (n-channel MOS) technology developed in 1970s required fewer masking steps, was denser, and consumed less power than equivalent bipolar ICs => an MOS IC was cheaper than a bipolar IC and led to investment and growth of the MOS IC market.
49
Evolution of IC Technologies ..2/2
– aluminum for gates replaced by polysilicon by early 1980
– CMOS (Complementary MOS): n-channel and p-channel MOS transistors => lower power consumption, simplified fabrication process
• Bi-CMOS - hybrid Bipolar, CMOS (for high speed and low power consumption)
• GaAs - Gallium Arsenide (for high speed)
• Si-Ge - Silicon Germanium (for RF)

was right!
Gordon Moore’s Evaluation & Prediction
• 1965 - observed trends in industry - # of transistors on ICs vs. release dates:
– Number of transistors doubling with release of each new IC generation
– Release dates (separate generations) were all 18-24 months apart
• Moore’s Law:
– The number of transistors on an integrated circuit would double every 18 months
• This comes about in two ways – size reduction of the individual
devices and increase in the chip or dice size
• Semiconductor industry has followed this prediction with surprising accuracy
57
How true..?
• 1965: Approximately 60 devices on a chip
• Proving Moore's law to be rather accurate, four decades later,
– Intel placed 1.7 billion transistors on its Itanium chip
• Both transistor density and IC performance has approximately DOUBLED every 18-24 months
58
Outcomes of Moore’s Law
• Many other factors also grow exponentially
• Data density doubles every 18-24 months (current definition of Moore’s Law)
•

Outcomes of Moore’s Law - Lower Cost per Transistor
64
Significant Breakthroughs Transistor size: Intel’s research labs have recently shown the world’s
smallest transistor, with a gate length of 15nm. We continue to build smaller
and smaller transistors that are faster and faster. We've reduced the size
from 70 nanometer to 30 nanometer to 20 nanometer, and now to 15
nanometer gates.
Manufacturing process: A new manufacturing process called 130 nanometer
process technology (a nanometer is a billionth of a meter) allows Intel today to
manufacture chips with circuitry so small it would take almost 1,000 of these
"wires" placed side-by-side to equal the width of a human hair. This new 130-
nanometer process has 60nm gate-length transistors and six layers of copper
interconnect. This process is producing microprocessors today with millions of
transistors and running at multi-gigahertz clock speeds.
Wafer size: Wafers, which are round polished disks made of silicon, provide
the base on which chips are manufactured. Use a bigger wafer and you can
reduce manufacturing costs. Intel has begun using a 300 millimeter (about 12
inches) diameter silicon wafer size, up from the previous wafer size of 200mm
(about 8 inches).

67
Outcomes of Moore’s Law - Scaling
• The process of shrinking the layout in which every dimension is reduced by a factor is called Scaling.
• Transistors become cheaper, smaller, less resistive, switch faster, dissipate less power while at the same time, use less power.
• Designs have smaller die sizes, higher yield and increased performance.
Transistor Size Scaling
MOSFET performance
improves as size is
decreased:
shorter switching time,
lower power
consumption.
2 orders of magnitude reduction in transistor size in 30 years. 68
69
Can Scaling Continue? ..1/2
• Scaling work well in the past:
• In order to keep scaling work in the future, many technical problems and design challenges need to be solved.

Can Scaling Continue? ..2/2
• Some characteristics of the transistors do not scale uniformly, e.g., delay, leakage current, threshold voltage, etc.
• Mismatch in the scaling of transistors and interconnects. Interconnect delay has increased from 5-10% of the overall delay to 50-70%.

IOT
• The “Internet of things” (IoT) is becoming an increasingly growing topic of conversation both in the workplace and outside of it. It’s a concept that not only has the potential to impact how we live but also how we work.
• Broadband Internet is become more widely available, the cost of connecting is decreasing, more devices are being created with wifi capabilities and sensors built into them, technology costs are going down, and smart phone penetration is sky-rocketing.
• Simply put this is the concept of basically connecting any device with an on and off switch to the Internet (and/or to each other). This includes everything from cell phones, coffee makers, washing machines, headphones, lamps, wearable devices and almost anything else you can think of. This also applies to components of machines, for example a jet engine of an airplane or the drill of an oil rig.
• relationship will be between people-people, people-things, and things-things
• The reality is that the IoT allows for virtually endless opportunities and connections to take place, many of which we can’t even think of or fully understand the impact of today. It’s not hard to see how and why the IoT is such a hot topic today, it certainly opens the door to a lot of opportunities but also to many challenges. Security is big issues that is oftentimes brought up. With billions of devices being connect together what can people to do make sure that their information stays secure? Will someone be able to hack into your toaster and thereby get access to your entire network? The IoT also opens up companies all over the world to more security threats. Then we have the issue of privacy and data sharing.
