With its military contacts, expertise in anti-terrorism and combat simulation, and all its detailed models of the effects of various weapons, Digital Sandbox realised that it was in a good position to diversify into extremely realistic computer games.

ECONOMIST: Serious games

The test chip will enable the correlation of the simulation models to the FinFET process and contains test structures, standard cells, a PLL and embedded SRAMs. The memory instances include high-density SRAMs designed to operate at very low voltages and high-speed SRAMs to validate the process performance.
