Many DTM schemes rely heavily on the accurate knowledge of the chip's dynamic thermal state to make optimal performance/ temperature trade-off decisions. This information is ...
Post-fabrication tuning for mitigating manufacturing variability is receiving a significant attention. To reduce leakage increase involved in performance compensation by body bia...
—During the power mode transition, a large surge current may lead to the malfunctions in a power-gating design. In this paper, we introduce several important properties of the s...
In macromodeling-based power estimation, circuit macromodels are created from simulations of synthetic input vector sequences. Fast generation of these sequences with all possible...
In this paper we propose a RObust Analog Design tool (ROAD) for post-tuning analog/RF circuits. Starting from an initial design derived from hand analysis or analog circuit synthe...
