Description du projet

Technologies de mémoire intégrée pour la mobilité intelligente

La mémoire non volatile (NVMe) intégrée et la mémoire à changement de phase (PCM) sont des technologies émergentes présentant un potentiel important pour les applications de mobilité et de société intelligentes. Le projet WAKeMeUP, financé par l’UE, vise à créer des circuits semi-conducteurs de grande valeur en Europe à l’aide d’une technologie révolutionnaire. Cet objectif sera atteint en établissant une ligne pilote pour les microcontrôleurs avancés avec NVMe intégré, en se concentrant sur la conception et la fabrication d’applications innovantes pour les domaines de la mobilité intelligente et de la société intelligente. En outre, le projet entend industrialiser la technologie PCM intégrée, en utilisant la ligne pilote du processus logique FDSOI 28 nm. WAKeMeUP explorera d’autres solutions de mémoire et fera des avancées dans les matériaux, la physique des dispositifs, les architectures et la conception pour minimiser la consommation d’énergie. L’objectif final est d’amener cette technologie à un stade précoce de maturité industrielle.

Objectif

The WAKEMEUP project objective is to set-up a pilot line for advanced microcontrollers with embedded non-volatile memory, design and manufacturing for the prototyping of innovative applications for the smart mobility and smart society domains.
The already defined microcontrollers with 40nm embedded flash technology will be consolidated to build a solid manufacturing platform. Additional developments will be performed for the integration of memory, power management, connectivity, hard security on the same chip.
The project will also target the industrialization of the embedded Phase Change Memory (PCM) technology built on top of the FDSOI 28nm logic process pilot line. The development of the ePCM will be driven by the final application requirements as well as decreasing the power consumption.
The alternative memory solutions will be also studied as they have different - and complementary - traits in such areas as read/write speed, power and energy consumption, retention and endurance, and device density and benchmarked with the ePCM and the conventional eFlash. Continued advances in materials, device physics, architectures and design could further reduce the energy consumption of these memories.
To achieve this goal of generating high value added semiconductor circuits in Europe in a breakthrough leading edge technology the project will deploy all the necessary activities to bring a new technology to an early industrial maturity stage. These activities encompass such developments as: technology enhancements for various specific application requirements such as wide temperature range and reliability, high security requests, high flexibility…, design enablment allowing first time silicon success, prototyping demonstrator products in the different application areas.
In the WAKEMEUP project, new devices and systems will be developed by the application partners in automotive and secure based on FD-SOI and embedded digital technology to answer specific applications needs.
