Abstract--In this paper, we present a new approach to calculate the steady state resistance values for CMOS library gates. These resistances are defined as simple equivalent models...
We describe an improved iterationless approach for computing the effective capacitance of an interconnect load at a driving gate output. The speed and accuracy of our approach mak...
Increases in delay due to coupling can have a dramatic impact on IC performance for deep submicron technologies. To achieve maximum performance there is a need for analyzing logic...

In the sub-micron technology era, wire delays are becoming much more important than gate delays, making it particularly attractive to go for clustered designs. A common form of cl...
The importance of an interconnect pattern density model in ASIC design flow for a 90nm technology is presented. It is shown that performing the timing analysis at the worst-case c...
