Decap (decoupling capacitor) is an effective technique for suppressing power supply noise. Nevertheless, over-usage of decap usually causes excessive power dissipation. Therefore...
Dynamic power management (DPM) work proposed to date places inactive components into low power states using a single DPM policy. In contrast, we instead dynamically select among a...
Designing asynchronous circuits by reusing existing synchronous tools has become a promising solution to the problem of poor CAD support in asynchronous world. A straightforward w...
CMOS-MEMS integration can improve the performance of the MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems), allows for smaller packages and leads to a lower packaging and instrumentation cos...
In this paper, we propose a timing dependent dynamic power estimation framework that considers the impact of coupling and glitches. We show that relative switching activities and ...

In addition to wirelength, modern placers need to consider various constraints such as preplaced blocks and density. We propose a high-quality analytical placement algorithm consi...
Traditionally, at early design stages, leakage power is associated with the number of transistors in a design. Hence, intuitively an implementation with minimum resource usage wou...
