Abstract--In this paper, we present a new approach to calculate the steady state resistance values for CMOS library gates. These resistances are defined as simple equivalent models...
With aggressive reductions in feature sizes and the integration of multiple functionalities on the same die, bottlenecks due to I/O pin limitations have become a severe issue in to...
