Improvement Trends for VLSI SoCs Enabled by Geometrical and Equivalent Scaling
! TRENDS: ! Higher Integration level
" exponentially increased number of components/transistors per chip/package.
! Performance Scaling " combination of Geometrical
(shrinking of dimensions) and Equivalent (innovation) Scaling.
! System implementation " SoC + increased use of SiP -
> SOP
! CONSEQUENCES: ! Higher Speed
" CPU clock rate at multiple GHz + parallel processing.
! Increased Compactness & less weight " increasing
system integration.
! Lower Power " Decreasing energy
requirement per function.
! Lower Cost " Decreasing cost per
function.
