As lithography geometries shrink, the amount of variation within the manufacturing process is growing rapidly. These expanding variations of transistor speed and power result in a far wider distribution encountered during manufacturing than ever before. As these distributions widen, it becomes impractical to achieve the high yields necessary for low cost. As a result, companies are forced to accept higher cost parts (by accepting yield loss), or reduced specifications (by widening the allowed range to keep cost down). LongRun2 Technology provide a practical way to tighten the manufacturing distribution through dynamic process compensation after manufacture, as well as synergistic circuit and process techniques.

Standby power is a lower power state used when the device is idle. Standby power is primarily set by leakage power since switching power is minimal in this state. LongRun2 Technology provide unique semiconductor structures, algorithms and advanced circuits that can be used to dynamically tune the transistors to minimize leakage in the standby state. In addition, innovations in LongRun2 Technology may help reduce minimum operating voltage, which can also improve standby power. Using these techniques, LongRun2 can be a solution to improve battery life for sensitive mobile applications.
