SOI provides significant PPA advantages over bulk CMOS for digital applications using standard EDA flows and physical IP.
SOI CMOS technical benefits compared to bulk CMOS:
• higher performance at the same power
• lower dynamic power for the same performance
Advanced SOI Technology for RF Applications Short Course
By Christine Raynaud, CEA-LETI / STMicroelectronics
For RF applications, SOI offers key advantages over bulk. It provides the ability to meet very low voltage and low noise applications, allows for improvement of passive devices and improves integration capabilities to reduce cost. This short course details the considerations for RF design with SOI.
