History of Science and Engineering Annotation << Back SOS-MICROELECTRONICS (35 YEARS OF THE LIFE OF « SAPPHIRE») V.M. Dereviankin, I.A. Sennikov Issues of the history of creation of high-speed radiation-resistant microcircuits on silicon on sapphire structures, element base features, technology and design are considered. It is shown, that the principal result of work was creation of the base technology of LSI CMOS SOS, functionally complete digital LSI set and of some important analog microcircuits. Key words: silicon on sapphire (SOS); microcircuit; complementary pair; CMOS; ion implantation doping; polycrystalline silicon; design rules; polyimide carrie; microprocessor slice; LSI; CAD/CAM; RAM; ROM; control system; simulation of functional circuits.
