ARM, UMC To Tape Out Cortex-A Based 14nm Chip
UMC also announced that its 14nm FinFET collaboration with Synopsys has expanded to include the EDA company's DesignWare embedded memory and test solutions. The pair has developed a second UMC 14nm FinFET PQV, following the successful tapeout and silicon bring-up of the first UMC 14nm FinFET PQV containing Synopsys' DesignWare logic libraries and utilizing the StarRC parasitic extraction tool.
UMC's 14-nm FinFET process has demonstrated good 128Mb SRAM yields and is expected to be ready for customer tapeout by late 2015.
