Right first time design needs a radical rethink: Smaller IC feature sizes bring additional problems that are difficult to predict, so why not plan for a re-spin and take advantage of multi-project wafer (MPW) runs? [Read all]

MOSIS: An Old Idea for Foundry Access Suddenly Sounds Pretty Forward-Looking: MOSIS, in case you aren't familiar with the organization, is a source of back-end IC production services, from multi-project wafers (MPWs) to small production runs. But it's also much more. The company started out in 1981 providing spots on MPWs for organizations doing research, test chips, samples, or limited production. In those days real men still had fabs, so the customers tended to be... [Read all]
