Electrical interconnects revitalized

چکیده

Models of electrical interconnects, including inductance and skin effect, are reviewed. The models are used for estimating the performance of electrical interconnects, particularly related to delays, data rates, and power consumption for off-chip and on-chip interconnects and for clock distribution. It is demonstrated that correctly utilized, electrical interconnects do not severely limit chip or circuit board capacity. Delays, data rates, and power consumption of electrical interconnects within a circuit board are acceptable and superior to optical alternatives.

Oxidation behavior and electrical Characteristics of used interconnects in solid oxide fuel cells at presence of Mn3O4 and MnFe2O4 coatings

In order to enhance the performance of interconnects which are used in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), a protective/conductive coating can be applied. In this research AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel was coated in a Mn-base pack mixture by pack cementation method. In order to evaluate the oxidation behavior, isothermal oxidation was accomplished for 200 h at 800 ºC. Electrical behavior was al...

Future State-of-the-Art Electrical Interconnect

This review intuitively explains the fundamental trade-offs of repeated and equalized electrical interconnects for on-chip networks as referencing counterparts of emerging nanophotonic interconnects in terms of data rate density, energy per bit, and latency. We also review the current stateof-the-art electrical interconnects from literature.

2D parallel optical interconnects between CMOS ICs

The CMOS IC industry thrives on the down-scaling drive for ever smaller transistors, leading to faster, smaller and more complex digital systems. These ICs are interconnected by electrical tracks running on Printed Circuit Boards. Due to different frequency-dependent sources of signal degradation, the performance of these electrical interconnects lags behind the IC performance. As the electrica...

Trends in Emerging On-Chip Interconnect Technologies

In deep submicron (DSM) VLSI technologies, it is becoming increasingly harder for a copper based electrical interconnect fabric to satisfy the multiple design requirements of delay, power, bandwidth, and delay uncertainty. This is because electrical interconnects are becoming increasingly susceptible to parasitic resistance and capacitance with shrinking process technology and rising clock freq...
