In this paper we have applied statistical sizing in an industrial setting. Efficient implementation of the statistical sizing algorithm is achieved by utilizing a dedicated interi...
: This paper presents FROSTY, a computer program for automatically extracting the hierarchy of a large-scale digital CMOS circuit from its transistor-level netlist description and ...
Standard cells are fundamental circuit building blocks designed at very early design stages. Nanometer standard cells are prone to lithography proximity and process variations. Ho...
