New service gives easy low-cost access to 90nm chip process technology
Multi-project wafer services company MOSIS has teamed up with IBM¹s silicon foundry to offer 90nm chip process technology on a shared-wafer basis. The MPW service will give many companies that have previously found sub-micron silicon fabrication costs prohibitive access to these technologies for as little as 10% of the price of a dedicated wafer run.
Shared wafer service on IBM’s 130nm 8WL process makes high-performance RF chip fabrication affordable
MOSIS, a provider of low-cost prototyping and small volume production services for custom ASICs, announces prototype and low volume fabrication access to IBM's fourth generation foundry technology, 8WL, the 130 nanometer (nm) silicon germanium (SiGe) bipolar complementary metal oxide semiconductor (BiCMOS) process. The process uses an emitter width of just 120nm and can be used to produce devices with an Ft of 100GHz. It creates low power devices...
