A tool that automates the floating-point to fixed-point conversion (FFC) process for digital signal processing systems is described. The tool automatically optimizes fixed-point d...
Antenna effect may damage gate oxides during plasma-based fabrication process. The antenna ratio of total exposed antenna area to total gate oxide area is directly related to the ...
Research in floorplanning and block-packing has generated a variety of data structures to represent spatial configurations of circuit modules. Much of this work focuses on the g...
We present a new technique to examine the trade-off regions of a circuit where its competing performances become “simultaneously optimal”, i.e. Pareto optimal. It is based on ...
