Know-how is the most useful mean for designing new processors before a complete hardware description. The integration rate is increasing very quickly and the timeto-market has to ...
Design debugging is a major bottleneck in modern VLSI design flows as both the design size and the length of the error trace contribute to its inherent complexity. With typical des...
The sustained progress of VLSI technology has altered the landscape of routing which is a major physical design stage. For timing driven routings, traditional approaches which con...
Interconnect has become the dominating factor in determining circuit performance and reliability in deep submicron designs. In this embedded tutorial, we first discuss the trends...
