Trends in IC technology
IC Technology:
The first IC was fabricated in the late 1960s. This revolution has changed the
direction of research after the invention of IC. The following are some important
trends come into use with reference to the IC technology.
Technology scaling:
The scaling principles describe the pace, expressed in a scaling factor, at
which geometrical parameters of MOS devices, interconnect wires and the
supply voltage value scale when moving to smaller process technologies.
The scaling factor is 0.7 i.e.
Ambient computing
Major consequences of the ultra-large scale integration is a clear
change in the use of computing. Unlike the first two general-purpose
computing phases, the third phase features computing which is hidden
in the background and thus almost invisible to a user. This type of
computing is referred to as ambient computing.

The demand for more powerful products and the huge capacity of today
s silicon technology have moved System-on-Chip (SoC) designs from
leading edge to mainstream design practice.

1. ASIC vendor design: This refers to the design in which all the
components in the chip are designed as well as fabricated by an
ASIC vendor.
2. Integrated design: This refers to the design by an ASIC vendor in
which all components are not designed by that vendor. It implies the
use of cores obtained from some other source such as a core/IP
vendor or a foundry.
3. Desktop design: This refers to the design by a fabless company that
uses cores which for the most part have been obtained from other
source such as IP companies, EDA companies, design services
companies, or a foundry.

The key factor that influences TAT for SOCs is system integration
(integrating different silicon IPs on the same IC).
23
The design process is the set of design tasks that transform an abstract
specification model into an architectural model.
