Net weighting to reduce repeater counts during placement
We demonstrate how to use placement to ameliorate the predicted repeater explosion problem caused by poor interconnect scaling. We achieve repeater count reduction by dynamically ...

Thermal-driven analog placement considering device matching
With the thermal effect, improper analog placements may degrade circuit performance because the thermal impact from power devices can affect electrical characteristics of the ther...

Computing bounds for fault tolerance using formal techniques
Continuously shrinking feature sizes result in an increasing susceptibility of circuits to transient faults, e.g. due to environmental radiation. Approaches to implement fault tol...

Gate sizing: finFETs vs 32nm bulk MOSFETs
FinFET devices promise to replace traditional MOSFETs because of superior ability in controlling leakage and minimizing short channel effects while delivering a strong drive curre...
