You are cordially invited to attend the 2000 Symposium on VLSI Circuits, to be held on June 15th - 17th, 2000, at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Honolulu, Hawaii.
This year the Symposium marks its 14th anniversary. The Symposium has established itself as a major international forum for presenting timely and important new developments in the VLSI and ULSI circuit design community. The scope of the Symposium has traditionally covered Analog, Digital, Memory and Signal Processing circuits contributed from both industry and universities from around the world. Preceding the Symposium on June 14th, a one-day short course on VLSI Circuits will be held. This short course will focus on Circuit Design for Wireline and Optical Fiber Communications. As has been traditional for a number of years, the Symposium on VLSI Circuits will be held for three days following the Symposium on VLSI Technology held at the same location.
The technical program committees reviewed one hundred ninety two (192) papers from nineteen (19) countries around the world. While the technical program is highlighted by very strong papers from universities, we achieved a record this year for industry paper submissions to the Symposium. From the papers submitted, sixty-two (62) papers were selected for presentation. We hope that you agree that these papers disclose new and interesting circuit design concepts for memories, processors, communications circuits, and analog and digital signal processing. We expect the technical content of the program to make the Symposium a worthwhile event for every attendee.
In addition, we have invited four speakers to describe to you areas of interest to VLSI designers; system LSI's for mobile communications, MEMS structures and circuits, addressing ESD for microprocessors and ASICS in the 21st century, and the evolution and revolution of memory technology.
In contrast to these formal talks, we have prepared four evening rump sessions on interesting and provocative subjects that offer you an opportunity to participate in discussions of interest with an international mix.
The symposium web page contain the advance program and forms for registration and hotel accommodations. Please try to complete and return these forms as soon as possible. While on-site registration will be available, early registration will facilitate the Symposium planning.
We look forward to meeting with you at the Symposium in Honolulu.

What kind of systems will be prevailing in the year 2010? Will they be ultra powerful PCs with multi-GHz processors, ultra reality Play Station-X, or ultra intelligent cellular phones? Will high performance chips in such systems integrate 100's of millions (if not billions) of transistors, having feature sizes below 100 nm? Will these systems be monolithic special function chips such as processors, or more likely to integrate diverse functions, towards system-on-a-chip (SOC)? What circuit, device, interconnect, and process technologies will they employ? Technology scaling in the next decade will face even greater challenges. Transistor leakage currents will increase dramatically to satisfy the performance demand. Interconnects will scale to advance integration, but RC delays will start dominating even more. Copper interconnects and low-K dielectrics will ease the burden somewhat, and SOI and derivative silicon technologies will help. But will these advances keep up with the demand? Circuit design, in the presence of high leakage and worse RC's, will be ever more challenging. What will happen to the traditional high performance circuits such as Domino—will they have a future? What will these chips look like in terms of performance, power, and size, and where will these chips get used? If the industry leans towards SOC, then what technology and circuit challenges lay ahead? The panel consisting of technology, circuit, and system experts will discuss these issues, and enlighten us with their thoughts.
CIRCUITS RUMP SESSIONS Thursday, June 15 8:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. |
R1 |
How to Prosper in a World of Embedded DRAM |
Honolulu I |
|
Organizers: |
P. Gillingham, MOSAID, |
Moderator: |
B. Prince, Memory Strategies International |
In recent years merged memory and logic processes offering the bit density of commodity DRAM with the transistor performance of pure logic process have become available. With few exceptions, the volume of products employing merged DRAM and logic processes today has fallen well below analysts expectations. What process technology offers the best mix of performance, density and cost for embedded DRAM applications? Is functionality different from stand alone DRAM required? What are the alternatives to monolithic solutions?
R2 |
Are Analog CMOS Technologies Near Extinction? |
Honolulu II |
|
Organizers/Moderators: |
B. Razavi, UCLA, |
The design of high-performance analog circuits in digital CMOS technologies continues to pose difficult challenges. Will analog CMOS technologies eventually become extinct or will a technology divergence similar to that between memories and microprocessors occur between analog and digital circuits? If a divergence indeed occurs, how different will the two technologies be? Do the additional development time and production costs justify the use of analog technologies? What will the interface between analog and digital circuits look like? Will clever circuit and device techniques obviate the need for custom analog components?
R3 |
Package Modeling: Or Silicon in System Debug? |
Honolulu III |
|
Organizers: |
B. Gieseke, AMD, |
Moderators: |
G. Taylor, Intel, |
With package pin counts, I/O bit rates, and dynamic current loads rapidly increasing, there is a perception among many in the design community that signal and supply integrity issues are becoming more serious and more prevalent requiring significant system debug in the lab. It has been suggested that the weak link in the total system design space is the lack of adequate package models where silicon and board modeling are solved problems. The panel will explore these perceptions in light of past successes and failures. Topics which the panel would like to discuss include:

STATISTICAL METROLOGY WORKSHOP
The Fifth International Workshop on Statistical Metrology will be held on Sunday, June 11, 2000 in Honolulu, Hawaii. The Workshop will be held in association with and precede the 2000 Symposium on VLSI Technology. This Workshop is an opportunity to learn about state of the art statistical methods for the design of VLSI process, devices, and circuits. This year’s agenda features a keynote address by Prof. Tadahiro Ohmi, "Perfect Scientific Manufacturing Free from Fluctuations" and three tutorial talks by leading workers in the field. The talks will be Dr. Steve Duvall, Intel, on statistical circuit modeling; Dr. Sani Nassif, IBM, on statistical process models; and Dr. Andrzej Strojwas, PDF Solutions, on yield modeling.
For the first time, this one-day Workshop integrates tutorials with the technical sessions in order to (1) raise process, device and circuit designer’s awareness about variation and statistical issues in design; and (2) provide a forum for discussion among researchers working in this field. The final program will be available on the web by March 31, 2000 at:
http://www-mtl.mit.edu/StatMet2000/
