A technique to derive test vectors that exercise the worstcase delay effects in a domino circuit in the presence of crosstalk is described. A model for characterizing the delay of...
This paper examines the effect of technology scaling and microarchitectural trends on the rate of soft errors in CMOS memory and logic circuits. We describe and validate an end-to...
