FD-SOI vs FinFET: Dan Hutcheson Re-Runs His Survey
Recently, the SOI Consortium held its annual Silicon Valley Symposium. At one of the first sessions I attended, Dan Hutcheson of VLSI Research updated the work that he presented at the same event a couple of years ago. In 2016 he ran a survey across the industry on attitudes to FD-SOI. As he described it: I talked to a wide range; FinFET bigots, SOI bigots, shades in-between.
He ran the same survey again this year to see what had changed. He met with decision makers and influencers representing 51% of the IC market and 59% of the IP market, across a wide swath of product categories. About half of them were the same individuals as in 2016. See the pie chart at the top left of this post for a more detailed breakdown.
