ABSTRACT |
|
The scalability of
advanced CMOS technology for radio frequency (RF) applications is
discussed. The impact of transistor scaling and advanced
interconnect technology on active device performance and passive
component quality is examined. Due to the limiting scaling of RF
circuit area, most advanced CMOS technology can only be justified for
products integrating RF circuits with large baseband digital blocks, or
products integrating multiple RF applications. |

PROF. SIMON
WONG (Stanford University, Stanford, CA)
|
 |
Prof. Wong studies the fabrication and
design of high performance integrated systems. His group focuses
on understanding and overcoming the limitations of circuit performance
imposed by device, interconnection and on-chip components. Wong
received the BEE and BME degrees from the University of Minnesota at
Minneapolis in 1975 and 1976 respectively, and the MS and PhD degrees
from the University of California at Berkeley in 1978 and 1983
respectively. From 1978 to 1980, he was with National
Semiconductor Corporation designing MOS dynamic memories. From
1980 to 1985, he was with Hewlett Packard Laboratories working on
advanced MOS technologies. From 1985 to 1988, he was an Assistant
Professor in the School of Electrical Engineering at Cornell University.
In 1988, he joined Stanford University where he is now Professor of
Electrical Engineering. He is a Fellow of IEEE. |
