Circuit interconnect has become a substantial obstacle in the design of high performance systems. In this paper we explore a new routing paradigm that strikes at the root of the i...
As the VLSI technology scales towards the nanometer regime, circuit performance is increasingly affected by variations. These variations need to be considered at an early stage in...
—In this paper a new ADC architecture of flash type is proposed. This proposed N-bit flash ADC replaces the (2N -1)-toN encoder with two (2N/2 -1)-to-(N/2) encoders to accomplish...
Discrete gate sizing is a critical optimization in VLSI circuit design. Given a set of available gate sizes, discrete gate sizing problem asks to assign a size to each gate such th...
