Existing 3D placement techniques are mainly used for standardcell circuits, while mixed-size placement is needed to support highlevel functional units and intellectual property (I...
− In this paper, we present a new timing-driven placement algorithm, which attempts to minimize zigzags and crisscrosses on the timing-critical paths of a circuit. We observed th...
Aggressive design cycles in the semiconductor industry demand a design-reuse principle for analog circuits. The strong impact of layout intricacies on analog circuit performance n...
