FinFET Technology

Nowadays, FinFET technology is being adopted in a variety of forms by IC manufacturers who need to increase the density of their ICs without using such small feature sizes that the device performance falls. As a result, FinFET transistor technology has enabled the development of IC technology and it has a great PPA performance.

FinFET advantages and disadvantages

FinFET advantages 

FinFETs have several key advantages that make them ideal for use in applications.

• Better channel control
• No DIBL effect
• Suppression of short-channel effects
• Faster switching speed
• Higher drain current
• Less Second order effect
• Lower switching voltage
• Lower power consumption

FinFET disadvantages 

• Difficult to control voltage threshold
• No Body bias effect
• A three-dimensional profile leads to higher parasitic
• Very high capacitances
• High fabrication cost
