Global Routing has been a traditional EDA problem. It has congestion elimination as the first and foremost priority. Despite of the recent development for popular rip-up and rerout...
Defect repair has become a necessary process to enhance the overall yield for memories since manufacturing a natural good memory is difficult in current memory technologies. This ...
Coarse-grain multi-threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) is an effective power-gating technique to reduce IC's leakage power consumption by turning off idle devices with MTCMOS power switc...
In this paper, we present an efficient method to solve the obstacle-avoiding rectilinear Steiner minimum tree (OARSMT) problem optimally. Our work is a major improvement over the w...
Through-silicon via (TSV) fabrication causes tensile stress around TSVs which results in significant carrier mobility variation in the devices in their neighborhood. Keep-out zone ...
1In this paper, we will present an effective layout method for analog circuits. We consider symmetry constraint, common centroid constraint, device merging and device clustering du...
