Advanced PROM Building Blocks

Objective

The goal of this project was the integration of new-generation reprogrammable, read-only memory devices (both EPROM and EEPROM) for the application-specific IC (ASIC) market into:

- one-micron and low-voltage (1.5 V, 2 micron design rule) CMOS (in the first phase of the project)
- 0.8 micron and low-voltage (1.5 V, 1.5 micron design rule) CMOS (in the second phase).

At the start of the project the availability of cell libraries and CAD tools for non-volatile memory was quite limited. One of the main objectives of the project has thus been the development of cell libraries for EPROM and EEPROM blocks and distributed memory, together with all the support circuitry, such as decoders, sense amplifiers, high voltage generators, etc. CAD tools to design and correctly match memory blocks of arbitrary size had also to be developed, as well as routing tools to handle the special high voltage requirements.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.
