Apple A12 Bionic APL1W81 TSMC N7 GPU Standard Cell Essentials

This project presents a Standard Cell Essentials analysis of TSMC's N7 finFET high-k metal (HKMG) CMOS process found in the Apple A12 Bionic APL1W81 application processor. This analysis is focused on the GPU area. We have assessed the standard cell architecture by extracting and locating in the GPU layout multiple standard cells. We have extracted the routing density of the GPU digital logic library. Process and BEOL stack-up and utilization have also been analyzed.
