This paper proposes a yield optimization method for standard-cells under timing constraints. Yield-aware logic synthesis and physical optimization require yield-enhanced standard ...
Leakage power has become one of the most critical design concerns for the system-level chip designer. Multi-threshold techniques have been used to reduce runtime leakage power wit...
A wrapper is a thin shell around the core, that provides the switching between functional, and core-internal and core-external test modes. Together with a test access mechanism (T...

We investigate differences in power between application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and custom integrated circuits, with examples from 0.6um to 0.13um CMOS. A variety of ...
This paper explores the advantages of high performance asynchronous circuits in a semi-custom standard cell environment for high-throughput turbo coding. Turbo codes are high-perf...
