Abstract

This paper presents the set of simulation means used to develop the concept of N2C2 (neural network compute cube) based on a vertical transistor technology platform. On the basis of state-of-the-art junctionless nanowire transistors (JLNT), TCAD simulation, compact modeling and EM simulation are leveraged through a Design-Technology Co-Optimization (DTCO) to achieve innovative 3D circuit architectures. Further, System-Technology Co-Optimization (STCO) implications on 3D NN system architecture are explored.
