Deep-submicron designs have to take care of process variation effects as variations in critical process parameters result in large variations in access latencies of hardware compo...
this paper proposes a novel Process Variation Aware SRAM architecture designed to inherently support voltage scaling. The peripheral circuitry of the SRAM is modified to selectivel...

- Exceptionally leaky transistors are increasingly more frequent in nano-scale technologies due to lower threshold voltage and its increased variation. Such leaky transistors may e...
In sub-90nm process technology it becomes harder to control the fabrication process, which in turn causes variations between the design-time parameters and the fabricated paramete...
Process variations will greatly impact the stability, leakage power consumption, and performance of future microprocessors. These variations are especially detrimental to 6T SRAM ...
