Opportunity: Surging adoption of FD-SOI in IoT devices and ML applications

The increasing use of FD-SOI in digital electronics creates opportunities for new IoT devices and applications as this technology ensures ultra-low power consumption, ultra-low current leakage, small and dense packaging, and the cost-efficiency of IoT devices. FD-SOI wafer-based devices have reverse bias characteristics, which help them operate at low voltages without area or cost penalties. Hence, FD-SOI is the most effective technique used in IoT devices. The increasing deployment of FD-SOI-based IoT solutions in automotive and network infrastructure applications is expected to provide opportunities for the growth of the SOI market. FD-SOI is also gaining ground in machine learning. ML techniques can significantly speed up the design space exploration for power devices, eventually reducing product-to-market time. Moreover, the breakdown voltage prediction using machine learning models in SOI wafer-based devices can dramatically shorten the inference time.

Challenge Process control in Silicon on Insulator wafers and circuit design complexity

The complex semiconductor manufacturing process poses hurdles in establishing the processes required for next-generation SOI technology, reducing the process’s systematic errors. Another issue with SOI has been circuit design, which necessitates new techniques from a technical standpoint. The SOI circuit designer must better understand the underlying device physics and processes; not doing so will present challenges during fabrication due to manufacturing and metrology problems.
