Concerned by the wall that Moore’s Law is expected to hit in the next decade, the integrated circuit community is turning to emerging nanotechnologies for continued device impro...
Although a lot of research efforts have been made in the minimization of the total power consumption caused by the clock tree, no attention has been paid to the minimization of th...
Metal-only ECO realizes the last-minute design changes by revising the photomasks of metal layers only. This task is challenging because the pre-injected spare cells are limited b...
Since across-chip interconnect delays can exceed a clock cycle in nanometer technologies, it has become essential in high performance designs to add flip-flops on wires with multi...
