Abstract— This paper presents a post-route, timingconstrained gate-sizing algorithm for crosstalk reduction. Gate-sizing has emerged as a practical and feasible method to reduce ...
With the exponential reduction in the scaling of feature size, inter-wire coupling capacitance becomes the dominant part of load capacitance. Two problems are introduced by coupli...
-- This paper presents a novel global routing algorithm, AT-PO-GR, to minimize the routing area under both congestion, timing, and RLC crosstalk constraints. The proposed algorithm...
Conventional global routing minimizes total wire length and congestion. Experiments using large industrial benchmark circuits show that up to 24% of nets in such routing solutions...
