First observation of FinFET specific mismatch behavior and optimization guidelines for SRAM scaling

V t -mismatch, and thus SRAM scalability, is greatly improved in narrow SOI FinFETs, with respect to planar bulk, because of their undoped channel and near-ideal gate control. We show by simulations and by measurements that in FinFETs, unlike planar bulk, beta-mismatch becomes dominant, leading to r...

description V t -mismatch, and thus SRAM scalability, is greatly improved in narrow SOI FinFETs, with respect to planar bulk, because of their undoped channel and near-ideal gate control. We show by simulations and by measurements that in FinFETs, unlike planar bulk, beta-mismatch becomes dominant, leading to radically different SRAM characteristics. By careful process tuning, we demonstrate a substantial reduction in beta-mismatch. We show the impact of this novel mismatch behavior on SRAM performance and yield under various optimization strategies and thereby provide guidelines for SRAM design in a FinFET technology.
