[mos-ak] note in the IEEE EDS REGIONAL AND CHAPTER NEWS

REGIONAL AND CHAPTER NEWS

ED Germany – by Joachim N. Burghartz 

The German Chapter of IEEE EDS sponsored the annual spring compact modeling workshop of the MOS-AK/GSA Modeling Working Group, a global compact modeling standardization forum, held April 11– 12, 2013. The meeting was supported by Prof. Doris Schmid-Landsiedel and the staff of the Institute for Technical Electronics, TUM, Munich, who is one of the local coordinators of the ED German Chapter. More than 30 international academic researchers and modeling engineers attended three sessions to listen to 12 technical compact modeling presentations. As in previous years this well-established effort has been coordinated by Wladek Grabinski, Switzerland. The workshop's three sessions focused on common compact modeling actions. Sessions included: (i) How to consolidate and build consistent simulation hierarchy at all levels of advanced TCAD numerical modeling; (ii) Compact/ SPICE modeling for Analog / Mixed Signal circuits; and (iii) Corner modeling and statistical simulations. The MOS-AK/GSA speakers were K.-W. Pieper (Infineon), M. Sylvester (MunEDA), B. Iñiguez (URV), I. Nickeleit (Agilent), L. Heiss (LTE, TUM); T. Schulz (Intel), C. Jungemann (RWTH), M. Brinson (London Metropolitan University), B.-Y. Nguyen (SOITEC), A. Kloes (THM), U. Monga (Intel), and M. Bucher (TUC). The event was accompanied by a series of the software/hardware demos by MOS-AK/GSA industrial partners: Agilent, MunEDA and Tanner EDA. The session technical and software/ hardware demo presentations are available for download at: <http:// www.mos-ak.org/munich_2013/>.

OBip: Open Bipolar Workshop at BCTM in Bordeaux

Open Workshop on European Bipolar related projects: 

DOTSEVEN & RF2THz

Abstract: In Europe, a huge effort is actually undertaken to strengthen Europe's leading edge position in SiGe HBT technology and modeling as well as SiGe enabled mm-wave applications thanks to two European projects that are: DOTSEVEN which aims to achieve HBTs with cut-off frequencies (fmax) of around 700 GHz and RF2THz which aims at the establishment of a 300mm BiCMOS Silicon technology platform for emerging RF, mm-wave and THz consumer applications, as well as Si photonics integration. During this common workshop the main achievements of these projects will be presented.

[mos-ak] Call for Papers] 6th International MOS-AK/GSA Workshop Dec. 11, 2013 Washington DC

Together with the Organizing Committee and Extended MOS-AK/GSA TPC Committee, we have pleasure to invite to the 6th International MOS-AK/GSA Workshop Dec. 11, 2013 Washington DC. The specific workshop goal will be to classify the most important directions for the future development of the electron device models, not limiting the discussion to compact models, but including physical, analytical and numerical models, to clearly identify areas that need further research and possible contact points between the different modeling domains (Technology TCAD, SPICE/Verilog-A standardization, advanced IC designs) . A freewheeling session will be also organized to review modeling activities of the CMC, NEEDS NanoHub and MOS-AK Groups.

Topics to be covered include the following:

• Advances in semiconductor technologies and processing
  
• Compact Modeling (CM) of the electron devices
  
• Verilog-A language for CM standardization
  
• New CM techniques and extraction software
  
• CM of passive, active, sensors and actuators
  
• Emerging Devices, CMOS and SOI-based memory cells
  
• Microwave, RF device modeling, high voltage device modeling
  
• Nanoscale CMOS devices and circuits
  
• Technology R&D, DFY, DFT and IC Designs
  
• Foundry/Fabless Interface Strategies
  

Speakers provisionary list (in alphabetic order)

• Keith Green, TI, CMC Chair (US)
  
• Benjamin Iniguez, URV (SP)
  
• Eric Keiter, Xyce Team, Sandia (US) 
  
• Luca Larcher, Uni. Modena (I)
  
• Mark Lundstrom, NEEDS, NanoHub (US)
  
• Michael Shur, RPI (US)
  
• Sadayuki Yoshitomi, Toshiba (J)
