Hello all,
I know that the topic seem not suitable for this board due to it is more related to digital circuit.
But I think this topic could be simply as "How does the parasitic capacitance shrinks as process scale down? "
So, Those who good at design Analog circuit design must know(or care) device parasitic capacitance very well.
The dynamic power consumption of digital circuit could be expressed as following equation
P=0.5*f*C*V^2, where f is operation frequency , C is parasitic capacitance of gate device , V is voltage.
If the process scale down from 90 nm to 65 nm , assume operation frequency and voltage same as older process and how much power I could saving in digital circuit.
If I only take care dynamic power and ignore the static power (leakage)
Base on the above equation. It looks like the power consumption is only related to the parasitic capacitance .
If I could well know the parasitic capacitance shrink ration then I could get the dynamic power consumption precisely.
But how could I get this information? Could I roughly estimate the shrink ration is 65 nm/90nm or have any rule of thumb principle.
Thank you for your help.
