general question

hi,

I still don't understand what does 0.8µm CMOS technology means. Can someone explain me?
 

Re: general question

0.8µm CMOS design means the design follows the model file defined by a fab lab, which can work for 0.8µm feature size. Or u can say that 0.8µm feature size is the minimum dimention that can be drown by a fab lab.

Actually, it is the minimum transistor channel length you can draw in that technology.
So, it is referring to polysilicon width over active, not to other geometries.

0.8 um indicates the mimimum allowable gate length is 0.8um..
