Gate sizing using incremental parameterized statistical timing analysis
— As technology scales into the sub-90nm domain, manufacturing variations become an increasingly significant portion of circuit delay. As a result, delays must be modeled as sta...

Effective tunneling capacitance: a new metric to quantify transient gate leakage current
— In this paper we propose a new metric called “effective tunneling capacitance” (Ct eff ) to quantify the transient swing in the gate leakage (gate oxide tunneling) current ...

Criticality computation in parameterized statistical timing
Chips manufactured in 90 nm technology have shown large parametric variations, and a worsening trend is predicted. These parametric variations make circuit optimization difficult ...
