The circuit tuning problem is best approached by means of gradient-based nonlinear optimization algorithms. For large circuits, gradient computation can be the bottleneck in the o...

Abstract— This paper presents an allocation method of decoupling capacitance that explicitly considers timing. We have found and focused that decap does not necessarily improve a...
This paper presents a general method for computing transient sensitivities using the adjoint method in event driven simulation algorithms that employ piecewise linear device model...
Abstract. In this paper, we study the problem of controlling the expected exit time from a region for a class of stochastic hybrid systems. That is, we find the least costly feedb...
Power supply noise increases the circuit delay, which may lead to performance failure of a design. Decoupling capacitance (decap) addition is effective in reducing the power suppl...
