In this paper, we investigate the speed and area-efficiency of FPGAs employing “logic clusters” containing multiple LUTs and registers as their logic block. We introduce a ne...
Asynchronous circuit implementations operating under strong constraints (DIMS, Direct Logic, some of NCL gates, etc.) are attractive due to: 1) regularity; 2) combined implementati...
Straining of silicon improves mobility of carriers resulting in speed enhancement for transistors in CMOS technology. Traditionally, silicon straining is applied in a similar ad-h...
- One of the critical issues in MTCMOS design is how to estimate a circuit delay quickly. In this paper, we propose a delay modeling and static timing analysis (STA) methodology ta...
— Clock power consumes a significant fraction of total power dissipation in high speed precharge/evaluate logic styles. In this paper, we present a novel low-cost design methodol...
