Timing-driven cell layout de-compaction for yield optimization by critical area minimization
This paper proposes a yield optimization method for standard-cells under timing constraints. Yield-aware logic synthesis and physical optimization require yield-enhanced standard ...

Wrapper design for embedded core test
A wrapper is a thin shell around the core, that provides the switching between functional, and core-internal and core-external test modes. Together with a test access mechanism (T...

Closing the power gap between ASIC and custom: an ASIC perspective
We investigate differences in power between application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and custom integrated circuits, with examples from 0.6um to 0.13um CMOS. A variety of ...
