Synopsys, Samsung Foundry Enable 3nm Process Technology for Demanding Mobile, HPC, and AI Designs

Synopsys announced that its collaboration with Samsung Foundry has produced multiple successful test chip tapeouts on Synopsys digital and custom design tools and flows, certified for Samsung Foundry’s most advanced process.

Samsung Foundry’s SF3 technology benefits include approximately 50% reduced power, 30% improved performance, and 30% smaller area that the technology node has demonstrated versus the Samsung SF5E process.

Demanding mobile, high-performance computing, and AI apps require power and performance levels that stretch the limits of small geometries. Samsung Foundry streamlined its 3nm process development costs and timeline, efficiently evaluating its process options based on PPA design metrics.
