The dependence of the propagation delay of the interlayer 3-D interconnects on the vertical through via location and length is investigated. For a variable vertical through via lo...
As technology advances, 3D ICs are introduced for alleviating the interconnect problem coming with shrinking feature size and increasing integration density. In 3D ICs, one of the...
Thermal problems and limitations on interlayer via densities are important design constraints on three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs), and need to be considered during g...
Three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs) offer a promising solution to overcome the on-chip communication bottleneck and improve performance over traditional two-dimensional...
In modern IC design, the number of long on-chip wires has been growing rapidly because of the increasing circuit complexity. Interconnect delay has dominated over gate delay as te...
