Abstract
High performance LSIs embedded with ferroelectric random access memory (FeR
AM) for contactless IC cards are now commercially available. The emphasis i
s placed on the materials solution with SrBi2(Ta,Nb)(2)O-9 (SBTN) which ena
bles to exploit the potential performance of FeRAMs for composite logic/mic
rocontroller LSIs operating at high speeds and low powers. The leading-edge
0.6-mu m and double-level-metal FeRAM technology produces microcontroller-
embedded LSIs with 14-kbit or 64-kbit FeRAM. A mature 0.8-mu m and single-l
evel-metal process has been built to maximize the die yield. Yields exceedi
ng 90% indicate the excellent process stability. Product qualification data
have proven the robust FeRAM technologies.
