dc.description.abstract |
This paper discusses metrics involving the bandwidth and energy characteristics of arbitrary interconnect stacks. Front-end dimensions are set by lithography and related fabrication restrictions and its performance is easily quantified using well-known metrics such as FO4 or ring oscillator delays, Ioff, and Ion. Back-end dimensions are not similarly constrained yet there are no comparable back-end metrics. In this study we seek figures-of-merit for interconnect architectures (stacks) that describe performance in terms of bandwidth and energy while considering issues such as via blockage and repeaters. A definition of bandwidth is presented and then appropriate via blockage models for interconnect stacks are investigated. In this paper, we improve existing bandwidth and throughput-driven design methodologies by looking at the entire stack rather than a single wiring layer. We also propose the use of bandwidth per unit energy. We evaluate and discuss these metrics in current 130nm and 90nm interconnect technologies. |
