Abstract

A 0.18 /spl mu/m high performance/low power technology platform is described which allows 'system on a chip integration' for a broad spectrum of products. Based on a generic digital process additional modules can be added in a modular and cost effective-manner for mixed signal as well as for eDRAM applications offering a maximum of flexibility for product designers. For mixed signal applications a precision metal-insulator-metal capacitor (MIMCAP) was developed. This is for the first time a realization of a metal-insulator-metal capacitor in a copper dual damascene metallization scheme.
