Eetimes -– Documents presented at the fully depleted silicon on insulator (FDSOI) workshop in San Francisco this week show that the FDSOI roadmap now omits a 20-nm and goes straight to 14-nm and then on to 10-nm.A summary slide from Horacio Mendez, executive director of the SOI Consortium, showed the jump with the comment that 14-nm FDSOI would be offered at the same time as Intel's 14-nm FinFET and would show the same performance characteristics but realizable at much lower cost. A presentation by Joel Hartmann, executive vice president of front-end process for STMicroelectronics, at the same meeting, organized by the SOI Consortium, also shows the move from 28-nm FDSOI, a process that is has started to ship in the second-half of 2012, on to 14-nm FDSOI and then 10-nm FDSOI.Previously ST has spoken of the 28-nm FDSOI process prototyping in July 2012 followed by a 20-nm FDSOI process prototyping in 3Q13.
