Query: Performance Study of the First 2D Prototype of Vertically Integrated
  Pattern Recognition Associative Memory (VIPRAM)   Extremely fast pattern recognition capabilities are necessary to find and fit
billions of tracks at the hardware trigger level produced every second
anticipated at high luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) running conditions. Associative
Memory (AM) based approaches for fast pattern recognition have been proposed as
a potential solution to the tracking trigger. However, at the HL-LHC, there is
much less time available and speed performance must be improved over previous
systems while maintaining a comparable number of patterns. The Vertically
Integrated Pattern Recognition Associative Memory (VIPRAM) Project aims to
achieve the target pattern density and performance goal using 3DIC technology.
The first step taken in the VIPRAM work was the development of a 2D prototype
(protoVIPRAM00) in which the associative memory building blocks were designed
to be compatible with the 3D integration. In this paper, we present the results
from extensive performance studies of the protoVIPRAM00 chip in both realistic
HL-LHC and extreme conditions. Results indicate that the chip operates at the
design frequency of 100 MHz with perfect correctness in realistic conditions
and conclude that the building blocks are ready for 3D stacking. We also
present performance boundary characterization of the chip under extreme
conditions.
