The economic and technological benefits of diversifying process flavors within existing FAB infrastructures offer a lot of potential. How are manufacturers balancing this effectively?
Thank you for asking this question. Semiconductor manufacturers are already doing so by enhancing the possibilities of a single node by leveraging different types of voltage-current profile it offers. That means, developing, validating and utilizing new types of devices that slightly different either in structural or physical profiles. Many manufacturers also combine this by providing different types of memory or even performance features, that enables customers to pick and select which flavor to use, as long as design rule comply.
