The ability to compute the parasitic inductance of the interconnect is critical to the timing verification of modern VLSI circuits. A challenging aspect of inductance extraction i...
Noise affects circuit operation by increasing gate delays and causing latches to capture incorrect values. This paper proposes a method of characterizing correlation of signal tra...

Sleep transistors are effective to reduce dynamic and leakage power. The cluster-based design was proposed to reduce the sleep transistor area by clustering gates to minimize the ...
Recent advances in tester technology have led to automatic test equipment (ATE) that can operate at up to several hundred MHz. However, system-on-chip (SOC) scan chains typically ...
