FIN FET (14nm) - part 1

3D fin fet

Q : Why Fin fet is so special ?

A : Fin fet is actually is an improvement from traditional planar transistor. So, Fin fet has it's own speciality such as higher performance,lower leakage and has smaller layout area.Besides that,fin fet has lower Vdd and delay than a planar process.err... how to prove it ? okay,lets scroll down

aha!

14nm finfet tech

FinFET can operate at lower Vdd ->  reducing active power >50%

Q: Why Fin Fet has higher performance rather than planar ?

A : Nowadays,most people talked about Metal Oxide Semiconductor [MOS] technology of the year because traditional planar CMOS has slowed down on scaling below 28nm node.Planar also has a greater leakage planar CMOS device as well as decreasing mobility (strained silicon helps)
