Welcome to the 2007 Symposium on VLSI Circuits
�Twentieth Anniversary�
You are cordially invited to attend the 2007 Symposium on VLSI
Circuits, to be held on June 14-16th, 2007, at the Rihga Royal Hotel
Kyoto in Kyoto, Japan. The Symposium will mark its twentieth
anniversary of the first Circuit Symposium. Following the tradition,
the Symposium on VLSI Circuits will follow the Symposium on
VLSI Technology at the same location. The Symposium has
established itself as a major international forum for presenting and
exchanging important ideas and new developments in VLSI circuit
design. We have expanded the digital-field scope to include largescale
system level issues as they affect cross-layer circuit
integration, in addition to Analog, Digital, Memory, Signal
Processing, and Communications Circuits. Contributions to the
Symposium come from both industry and academia around the
world.
Preceding the Symposium on June 13th, a one-day Short Course will
be held. This short course will focus on �Design for Variability in
Logic, Memory and Microprocessors� where experts will give
educational talks on this timely topic in VLSI circuits. On the same
day, we have a Workshop on �Advanced Topics on Multi-Standard
Wireless Transceiver RFIC Designs.� With a single Short
Course/Workshop registration fee you can select to attend either
session. This year, the technical program committee reviewed 343
papers, which is record high for Kyoto Symposium, and selected 103
papers for presentation. The core tradition of the Symposium is the
paper quality and this year the committee has selected very high
quality papers representing the scope of the symposium. We have
also invited four distinguished speakers to describe recent advances
and new challenges in the areas of future mobile phones, analog
power consumption, microprocessors for game consoles, and organic
electronics. To complement the formal talks, we have arranged four
evening rump sessions on interesting and provocative subjects to
give you an opportunity to participate in the discussions and mix
with the participants. The rump sessions explore: �Analog Scaling
and SOC integration�, �CMOS Scaling: Where will Economics Set
the End of the Line?�, and �Are Design Tools and Methodologies
Measuring up to the Challenge of the DFM Era?�. The rich technical
content of the program will undoubtedly interest you, and we
certainly hope that the Symposium will be a fruitful and enjoyable
experience. This booklet contains the advance program together with
forms for the Symposium registration and hotel reservations. Please
complete and return these forms or visit our website for online
registration at /16web/symposia.html.
Although on-site registration will be available at the conference, preregistration
will facilitate Symposium planning. We look forward to
meeting with you at the Symposium in Kyoto.

Compact models play a key role in DFM era, especially in
variability-aware LSI design. There are questions as to the
capabilities of these models, effectiveness in design, and credibility
when design is concurrent with process development. The panel
addresses some key questions.
- Are empirical Spice models sufficient or do we need to invest on
better physical models for new materials and device architecture?
- Can we trust these models calibrated with limited process data?
- How do we accurately account for variations when design is
concurrent to process development?
- How do we properly distinguish between systematic and random
variations?
- Can we trust physical OPC, etching, and CMP models for
predictions?
- Do the Spice variation models even matter when there are so many
other sources of errors such as tool limitations, crude static timing
assumptions, MCF approximations, and the exclusion of MIS and
crosstalk? |

Special Evening Talks: �Analog Scaling and SoC Integration�

Organizers |

|
1) What Should We Develop for Future RF Applications?
T. Ohguro, Toshiba
Recently, the telecommunication system has become complicated as
Multi-band and multi-system have been popular. And MOSFETs
with high RF performance has been required for mm-wave
application. In this session, we will discuss what technology and
elements we should develop for future RF application. Device
engineer has some questions. Advanced MOSFET with extremely
higher fT is the first priority? Or are high Q Inductor, high-density
capacitor or RF MEMS such as switch, variable capacitor, filter and
resonator more important?
2) Nanometer CMOS Trends: From Device Properties to Circuit
& System Performance
M. Vertregt, NXP Semiconducters
Implications of nanometer CMOS technology scaling (90nm, 65nm,
45nm and an outlook to 32nm) for the MOS device properties
relevant to circuit design will be explored. The demand is for high
speed and/or high dynamic range circuits, without compromising
power consumption. The possibilities to fulfill this demand in
combination with the inevitable increase of local and global
variabillity will be discussed.
3) SiP Versus SoC: RF System Partition for Cost and
Performance
A. Maxim, Silicon Laboratories
Partitioning the signal path of a radio receiver is crucial to the
overall system cost and performance. Two major integration
approaches have emerged: single-chip System-on-Chip (SoC) in
which both the sensitive RF front-end and the noisy digital back-end
are realized on the same die and multi-chip System-in-Package (SiP)
where the analog frond-end and the digital core are realized on
separate dies that are co-located in the same package. Design
challenges and circuit/system solutions are presented for both SoC
and SiP receivers. The different integration approaches including
single-chip RF-to-digital SoC, SiP assembly of a stand-alone tuner
and a demodulator-on-host, or between a tuner-demodulator and a
separate back-end MPEG host processor are investigated for the case
of satellite TV applications.
4) Challenges of Circuit Engineers to Analog Scaling
M. Hotta, Musashi Institute of Technology
K. Suyama, Epoch Microelectronics
In the case of mixed-signal system LSIs which integrate such analog
functions as ADCs, DACs and RF circuits, we are not allowed to
neglect the miniaturization and power reduction of analog portion
while CMOS technology scaling is progressed. Trends in
miniaturization and power reduction of analog functions will be
introduced and some challenges to overcome problems in use of
finer technologies will be discussed. |

|
| CMOS scaling is no longer making devices better or faster for digital
applications. Because of this, continued scaling is being driven
largely by the fact that scaling is still reducing the cost of a
transistor. Unfortunately, this a trend that cannot continue forever, as
tooling and fabrication challenges multiply for deeply-scaled CMOS
nodes. Where will economics set the �end of the line�? What players
or markets will determine this �end of line� scaling node? Will
FinFETs, double-gate structures (and other alternatives to
conventional CMOS devices) ever make sense from an economic
perspective? |
