The discrete transistor widths of multi-fin MUGFETs are a circuit
design limitation compared to bulk CMOS.
This design limitation is not critical for nFET/pFET sizing in CMOS
logic circuits, especially for a <110> channel surface orientation [1]
Discrete transistor widths are a concern for SRAM cells which are
composed of single-fin devices.
In SRAM the drive currents of single-fin MUGFETs can be modified
only by different gate lengths.

Speed in Different Structure
• Performance, active and leakage
current of these structures are
measured using 24 ring oscillator (RO)
modules.
• The ROs are composed of various
gates up to NAND3/NOR3 complexity
with a fan out two (FO2) .
Triple-Gate circuits using TiN metal gate
electrodes are 65% faster than FinFET
circuits with poly-Si gate electrodes at
VDD=1.2V.
From [1]

Low Power Design
• Low power circuits require additional
high-VT devices to implement noncritical paths to switch-off non-active
circuit blocks.
• Fast circuit are based on devices
with minimum gate length while
leakage sensetive circuits are made of
devices with longer gate lengths but
smaller off-currents.

A
• Due to the large multi-fin transistors
with non-minimum gate lengths, the
effect of discrete device widths on
circuit design is negligible.
• Bode plot ( gain vs. frequency)
configured as a 20dB inverting
amplifier.
• The low-frequency open loop gain is
A0=45dB . This is comparable with
typical open loop gains achievable in
deep sub-micron planar CMOS
technologies.

I/O & ESD
 MuGFETs show a low ESD current
capability and high ESD sensitivity.
 This motivates the co-integration of
more robust PD-SOI devices for ESD
clamps and multi-fin MuGFETs to
provide large currents for fast I/O
drivers.

Conclusion
• Three-dimensional device topology in combination with a
small fin pitch in multifin MuGFET improves the circuit
density
• Novel Gate-Stack materials can improve performance.
• The use of FinFET in low power applications is
considered.
• The successful design and realization of the most
important analog circuits (Miler op-amp) in a MuGFET
technology is presented for the first time.
• We see a solution to the electrostatic discharge (ESD)
sensitivity of MuGFETs.
