Models of simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE) are currently playing a central role in the connection between circuit design and chip fabrication communitie...
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...
—Interconnect inductance introduces a shielding effect which decreases the effective capacitance seen by the driver of a circuit, reducing the gate delay. A model of the effectiv...
The Elmore delay is the metric of choice for performancedriven design applications due to its simple, explicit form and ease with which sensitivity information can be calculated. ...
