Inductance effects of on-chip interconnects have become more and more significant in today’s high-speed digital circuits, especially for global interconnects such as signal buse...
In dense integrated circuit designs, management of routing congestion is essential; an over congested design may be unroutable. Many factors influence congestion: placement, rout...
