Abstract. The SoC (System-on-Chip) technology is used in small and flexible consumer electronic devices. SoCs include one or more microcontroller, memory, programmable logic, and ...
As the CMOS technology enters the deep submicron design era, the lateral inter-wire coupling capacitance becomes the dominant part of load capacitance and makes RC delay on the bu...
Controllers for dynamically recon gurable FPGAs that are capable of supporting multiple independent tasks simultaneously need to be able to place designs at run{time when the seque...
Test access is a major problem for core-based systemon-chip (SOC) designs. Since cores in an SOC are not directly accessible via chip inputs and outputs, special access mechanisms...
Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) has become a dominant reliability concern for nanoscale PMOS transistors. In this paper, we propose variable-latency adder (VL-adder) ...
