Hi
Remember the thrill of seeing your first inverter plot? FinFET at 7nm is that feeling - multiplied. It’s where better physics becomes real speed, real efficiency, and real products.
MOSFET vs FinFET (why it matters to
you)
Attribute | MOSFET | FinFET (7 nm) | Why it
matters |
|---|
Gate control | 2D gate | 3D wrap-around | Sharper switching, cleaner VTC |
Leakage | Higher | Much lower | Cooler chips, longer battery |
Drive & speed |
Limited | High per-fin | Faster paths, higher fMAX |
Variability | Wider | Tighter | Predictable timing/sign-off |
A quick AI example:
Think
real-time vision on a phone/drone. With FinFETs, inference runs faster and cooler, so models hit frame-rate targets without burning the battery—because leakage is tamed and drive is available in a tight thermal envelope.
Your on-ramp:
Our FinFET Circuit Design and Characterization workshop (ASAP7, Xschem, Ngspice) takes you from NFET/PFET characterization to
inverter VTC/noise margins and a precision bandgap reference, ending with a reviewable GitHub portfolio recruiters can trust.
