LONDON – Globalfoundries Inc. is evaluating a third manufacturing option to follow conventional bulk planar CMOS: super-steep retrograde well (SSRW) technology that creates a ground plane under a transistor using a doping technique.
The technology appears to be very similar to that developed by SuVolta Inc. (Los Gatos, Calif.) although Globalfoundries (Milpitas, Calif.) has declined to say whether it is working with or in negotiations with SuVolta.
