This paper describes an algorithm for simultaneous gate sizing and fanout optimization along the timing-critical paths in a circuit. First, a continuous-variable delay model that ...
Abstract—With delays due to the physical interconnect dominating the overall logic path delays, circuit-level delay optimization must take interconnect effects into account. Inst...
