Test data volume and scan power are two major concerns in SoC test. In this paper we present an alternative run-length coding method through scan chain reconfiguration to reduce b...
Power and energy consumption of digital systems may increase significantly during testing. This extra power consumption due to test application may give rise to severe hazards to ...
Traditionally, clock network layout is performed after cell placement. Such methodology is facing a serious problem in nanometer IC designs where people tend to use huge clock buff...
A hierarchical scheme with cells and modules is crucial for managing design complexity during a large integrated circuit design. We present a methodology for thermal aware cell-ba...
Energy efficiency has become a critical concern in designing high speed packet classification engines for next generation routers. Although TCAM-based solutions can provide high th...
