Aggressor alignment for worst-case coupling noise
In this paper we study signal alignment resulting in maximum peak interconnect crosstalk noise. We consider two cases. In the first one we assume that arbitrary arrival times of i...

Datapath routing based on a decongestion metric
For a four-layer datapath routing environment, we present an algorithm that considers all the nets simultaneously. Routing probabilities are calculated for potential routing regio...

Critical area computation for missing material defects in VLSI circuits
We address the problem of computing critical area for missing material defects in a circuit layout. The extraction of critical area is the main computational problem in VLSI yield...

Simulating frequency-dependent current distribution for inductance modeling of on-chip copper interconnects
500+ MHz designs using deep-submicron (DSM) copper interconnects require accurate and efficient modeling of cladding-metals’ frequency-dependent impedance [1]. In this paper, fo...

A practical clock tree synthesis for semi-synchronous circuits
In this paper, we propose a new clock tree synthesis method for semi-synchronous circuits. A clock tree obtained by the proposed method is a multi-level multi-way clock tree such ...
