Abstract— This paper addresses the module assignment problem in pinlimited designs under the stacked-Vdd circuit paradigm. A partition-based algorithm is presented for efficient...
Input vector control (IVC) technique utilizes the stack effect in CMOS circuit to apply the minimum leakage vector (MLV) to the circuit at the sleep mode to reduce leakage. Additi...
: We presentdesign-for-low-power techniques based on glitch reduction for register-transfer level circuits. We analyze the generation and propagation of glitches in both the contro...
We introduce a novel chip fabrication technique called “brick and mortar”, in which chips are made from small, pre-fabricated ASIC bricks and bonded in a designer-specified a...
