What is FinFET?

1. 1. What is the main benefit of using FinFET technology?

• Increased size of transistors

• Improved computational density

• Reduced manufacturing costs

• Simplified architecture

2. What does FinFET stand for?

• Field Effect Transistor

• Fin Field Effect Transistor

• c. Fast Integrated Circuit

• d. Functional Field Effect Transistor

3. 3. What does “non-planar” refer to ?

• A flat surface design

• A design that is a single plane

• A three-dimensional structure

• A circular design

4. How many gates does a dual gate FinFET have?

• One

• Two

• Three

• Four

5. What is the role of the gate in a transistor?

• To amplify sound

• To control electrical conductivity

• To store data

• To provide energy

6. Why is the term “architecture” used in silicon design?

• It relates to electrical circuits only

• It is an outdated term

• It refers to the thickness of chips

• It describes the layout like city maps

6. 7. The number of transistors in a given area is the
   (write in English)

7. 8. What is meant by “floating-point operations per second” (FLOPS)?

• A measure of computational power
• A measure of chip thickness
• A measure of transistor size

9. At what size do transistors start to leak current? ....nanometers

• 90

• 50

• 28

• 10

10. What is one potential solution to prevent leakage in smaller transistors?

• Use different chemicals and minerals
  

• Increase the size of the chips

• Change the architecture to planar

• Reduce the number of gates
