Delay Uncertainty Reduction by Interconnect and Gate Splitting
Traditional timing variation reduction techniques are only able to decrease the gate delay variation by incurring a delay overhead. In this work, we propose novel and effective sp...

Simultaneous Gate and Interconnect Sizing for Circuit-Level Delay Optimization
Abstract—With delays due to the physical interconnect dominating the overall logic path delays, circuit-level delay optimization must take interconnect effects into account. Inst...

Shielding effect of on-chip interconnect inductance
—Interconnect inductance introduces a shielding effect which decreases the effective capacitance seen by the driver of a circuit, reducing the gate delay. A model of the effectiv...

Influence of Leakage Reduction Techniques on Delay/Leakage Uncertainty
One of the main challenges for design in the presence of process variations is to cope with the uncertainties in delay and leakage power. In this paper, the influence of leakage r...
