In a synchronous finite state machine (FSM), huge current peaks are often observed at the moment of state transition. Previous low power state encoding algorithms focus on the red...
— For 65nm and below devices, even after optical proximity correction (OPC), the gate may still be non-rectangular. There are several limited works on the device and circuit char...
An approach to robust system level mixed signal design is presented based on analog platforms. The bottom-up characterization phase of platform components provides accurate perfor...

This paper presents figures of merit and error formulae to determine which interconnects require volume discretization in the GHZ range. Most of the previous work focused mainly o...
