Chip Morphing Technology
chip morphing technology is a new technology introduced by IBM which is said to enable a new class of semiconductor products that can monitor and adjust their functions to improve their quality, performance and power consumption.
The eFUSE technology combines unique software algorithms and microscopic electrical fuses. These chips adapt and regulate their actions depending on the conditions and system demands. eFUSE can even dynamically sense that a chip needs tune up eFUSE can alter the configuration and efficiency of circuitry to enhance performance or avoid a potential problem. The eFUSE eFUSE is part of a built-in self-repair system that constantly monitors a chipâ„¢s functionality. Whenever it detects an imperfection, it takes action by tripping inexpensive, simple electrical fuses. It can control the local voltage if it detects a chip is malfunctionbecause individual circuits are running too fast or too slow.
