@Anastasi In Tech - What about using i-squared-l logic and/or vacuum channel FETs, possibly on chiplets? I2L seemed very promising when first introduced, but it's power consumption was high since transistors were all large at that time. As a bipolar technology it will not suffer from gate leakage problems. Are there any other reasons why it might not work? As for "vacuum" channel FETs, they are 10 times faster or more, partly because they use free electrons. They also benefit from nanoscale features, are extremely radiation resistant, and they can operate comfortably at temperatures up to hundreds of degrees Celsius. Also they don't actually require vacuum when built at small nanoscales.

When I first started programming, and RAM was off chip and typically a few KB, we'd spend a lot of dev time working out how to do as much as possible in as little RAM as possible and as few clock cycles as possible. These days the demands to cut development time and get new features out, more driven by senior management and Product Owners than by real customer demand, seems to have ditched those ideas. If it's too slow the customer is expected to just buy a higher spec machine and new developers are taught ways to shorten development time but not execution time. I think that this is a false economy. About 10 years ago I was able to shorten a big data-processing job from 3 days to under 20 minutes, on the same hardware, by applying the techniques I'd learned back in the 1980s to key functions. It took me 5 days, but when this is something that has to be run every week the saving soon stacks up
@crazyedo9979Ай бұрын
You are absolutely right. Once I participated in a service job to get a power station running. The problem was to bring the gas engines up and running as fast as possible. After a few days the programmer had been flown in and looked for alternative assembler commands to save a clock cycle here and a clock cycle there.😁

It's not a false economy, just a different emphasize due to the change in price structure. In the old days, memory were expensive, so we tried to economize its use. Today's memory are so cheap, that software developing time has become the most expensive part of a system.
@StephenBoothUK29 күн бұрын
@@gorilladisco9108 the cost of memory is largely immaterial. It’s the cost of execution time. Say you’ve got a transaction that currently takes 10 minutes to complete but if the code was optimised would take 7 minutes. To optimise the code would take the developer an extra 5 days effort and the developer earns £30 an hour (that’s the mid-point for a developer where I work), so that’s about £1100 wage cost but once it’s done that cost is done. Once rolled out the application is used by 200 people paid £16 an hour (I have some specific applications we use in mind here). Saving 3 minutes per transaction means either those same staff can process 30% more transactions or we can lose 60 staff at a saving of just over £7000 a day. That extra development time would repay in a little over an hour on the first day and after that would be pure cost saving.

The problem with chiplet design is heat management. Since every layer is active, it burns energy and produces heat, and this isn't good. A secondary problem is the bus interconnect because stacking requires shared lanes, so memory layers are in parallel, making the bus interconnect a bottleneck. Last but not least is signal strength and propagation time: stacking layers requires precise alignment and add electron jumping around, so there's a potential limiting factor in electron propagation, noise and eventual errors. This isn't much of a problem if the system is built around it, but it still is a limiting factor. There are solutions: since there's one master and multiple slaves there's no risk of collisions and so you can make a lot of assumptions on the drawing board... but busses are going to become wider and more complex, and that will add latency where you don't want it. My 2 cents.

Thanks. Amazing video. It's kind of interesting how it always comes down to the same principles. First shrinking the size in 2D, then layering stuff, and eventually going into the 3rd dimension. And when that reaches its limits, then change the packaging and invent some hybrid setup. Next, change the materials and go nano or use light etc. instead. Even the success criteria are usually similar: energy consumption, speed or latency, size and area, cost of production, reliability and defect rate, and the integration with the existing ecosystem.

It also involves a physical change to the medium, which means wear and limited number of writes. I believe a similar principle has been around since at least the 90s.

I will say though, your point is probably good and valid, but could have been made more constructively.

The words "dynamic" and "static" are a reference to the powering method between state changes. You kind of hinted at this with the TTL logic diagram, but didn't expand. Static is faster because it doesn't have to wait for the re-fresh cycles before it can change state. Static also runs hotter and consumes more power- there are no free lunches ;-)
@simontillson48227 күн бұрын
Not exactly. DRAM consumes power all the time, because it needs constant refresh to preserve contents. SRAM only consumes power during state change. Both consume some leakage current though, and with that, SRAM consumes more due to having more transistors per bit cell. DRAM also consumes considerable current to change state, because of its larger gate capacitance. Overall, DRAM tends to consume more power per bit but costs less and is more compact, which is why we use it for main memory and reserve SRAM for cache and internal registers.

Moreover, although a 23% decrease in area is good for an existing bottle neck, it is not revolutionary, that would need a factor of at least 10.

Not really, the silicon lattice constant is only 0.7 nanometers. We can't scale in silicon below that. Germanium has a lattice constant of about 0.5. While process nodes and technology are mostly marketing terms and there is room for improvement beyond "1 nanometer process" - we are about at the end of what we can achieve with existing semiconductor paradigms. It will be almost all architecture and material sciences by 2030. We can't get much smaller. A 20% improvement over SRAM is disruptive even if it doesn't scale any smaller. SRAM is unable to be scaled any smaller due to the physics underwriting operation. We only have a few more die shrinks left before we are up against the size of the atom. ... Again, sort of ... A 1 nanometer node doesn't necessarily mean that you can make a grid of 1 nanometer square pads separated by 1 nanometer troughs on all sides, or vice-versa. But as I mentioned, the lattice constant of silicon is 0.7 nanometers, their latest process node is 1.4 nanometers. You can't really cleave off half a crystalline arrangement without having weird things happen, the next die shrink, if it is possible, would come at 0.7 nanometers. We would be, assuming we can make the grid arrangement described, making the smallest transistors possible with silicon, using existing paradigms.... And whatever paradigm comes next would need to use atoms much more efficiently - or some other concepts entirely - to function. On the plus side, it means that in about another 10 years, we might see computers built with the idea they could last decades in their application.

This is not a solution to the SRAM problem, even the authors of the paper state "his work provides key materials and engineering insights towards the design and optimization of energy-efficient PCM, and could inspire the industry-scale adoption of nanoscale superlattice phase-change materials for low-power and high-density storage." The report states that they have a nice cell size of 45 nm, but a switching time of 40ns and endurance of 2 x 10^8 cycles (SRAM is around 10^15). So this is a possible replacement for Flash memory not SRAM. As a side note, the use of any heat based phase change storage solution on or near the CPU die would result in some very interesting performance issues as the heat output of the CPU would be impacted by the number of true values held within the cache storage and the frequency the cache is rewritten.

OK I’m calling this out as not feasible in lots of cases. The issue is that SRAM needs to be tightly coupled into an architecture to get the performance benefit. However if a bond-out pad is required (eg chiplet etc) via Bunch Of Wires interface then there will be a delay penalty due to capacitance and transmission line issues. This means added latency and a performance hit. Might be useful for L2 cache but anything local it is of no use. SRAM at the local level is still the best solution.

I worry about using non-volatile memory for primary or cache memory because of the security aspect. If the information remains after power is interrupted, quite a few "secrets" will be in clear text, and the determined and well equipped "bad actor" will be able to extract surprising amounts of information from a system. My industry has to issue letters of volatility with everything we produce, and for anything with NVM, the sanitization procedure usually involves removing the part with non-volatile storage and destroying it. The only exception is when it can be proven that the hardware is incapable of writing to that NVM from any component present on the assembly, even if malicious or maintenance software is loaded onto the device. This phase change memory built in the same package as the CPU logic could not be provably zeroized without some sort of non-bypassible hold up power, and that would increase the cost and size of the chip package. I think this is very promising for secondary addressable storage, but I don't see it replacing main memory in most applications.

This new advance just makes PCM more competitive at the time when SRAM is struggling to keep meeting the needs of the industry. So it is a big deal, just not a completely new big deal ;)

I'm a big fan of mammary technology I would hate to see it go.

I wish TCAM (ternary content addressable memory) and nvSRAM both had a chance to become more widespread.

Great video - thank you Anastasi :-) I think if we stack much more memory as 3rd level cache chiplets on top of CPUs we may reach the size of gigabyte 3rd level cache. And this would eliminate the external DIMMs on the mainboard which makes future Notebooks and PC again cheaper and reduces not just the complexity of the mainboard but also of the operating system, drivers and firmware because data can be loaded directly via fast PCIe lanes connected SSDs to 3rd level cache.

But it has one significant problem: a large amount of energy is always released during the phase transformation. This technology addresses the issue of overheating, which needs to be resolved

this crystalamorphous state change.. that means it's non-volatile?? Wow.

I seem to recall that IBM was using chiplets as far back as 2+ decades ago but for mainframes IIRC
