Manufacturable design requires matching of interconnects which have equal nominal dimensions. New design rules are projected to bring guarantee rules for interconnect matching. In...
Higher integration densities, smaller feature lengths, and other technology advances, as well as architectural evolution, have made microprocessor cores exceptionally complex. Cur...
We present a new technique to examine the trade-off regions of a circuit where its competing performances become “simultaneously optimal”, i.e. Pareto optimal. It is based on ...
This paper presents a novel low-energy memory design technique, considering effective bitwidth of variables for applicationspecific systems, called VAbM technique. It targets th...
When designers create RTL models from a system-level specification, arrays in the system-level model are often implemented as memories in the RTL. Knowing the correspondence betwe...
