For a space compactor, degradation of fault detection capability caused by the masking effects from unknown values is much more serious than that caused by error masking (i.e. ali...
In this paper, a Triangularization Based Structure preserving (TBS) model order reduction is proposed to verify power integrity of on-chip structured power grid. The power grid is...
Gate sizing and threshold voltage (Vt) assignment are popular techniques for circuit timing and power optimization. Existing methods, by and large, are either sensitivity-driven h...
