Timing-driven variation-aware nonuniform clock mesh synthesis
Clock skew variations adversely affect timing margins, limiting performance, reducing yield, and may also lead to functional faults. Non-tree clock distribution networks, such as ...

Architectural implications of brick and mortar silicon manufacturing
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...

Type-matching clock tree for zero skew clock gating
Clock skew minimization is always very important in the clock tree synthesis. Due to clock gating, the clock tree may include different types of logic gates, e.g., AND gates, OR g...

Improved algorithms for link-based non-tree clock networks for skew variability reduction
In the nanometer VLSI technology, the variation effects like manufacturing variation, power supply noise, temperature etc. become very significant. As one of the most vital nets...
