A 6T static random access memory (SRAM) cell with a new write-assist (WA) feature is presented. The WA technique reduces the problem of writing a "one" through an nMOS pass device, thereby making a single-ended bit line more attractive. Both active p

The regenerative carry based addition scheme has been found to be fast, area efficient, and power efficient. Previous work demonstrated the effectiveness of this technique compared with other fast adder techniques. This paper discusses optimization c

A new approach to integrating hardware multiplication, division, and square-root is presented. We use a fully integrated control path which simultaneously reduces part of the redundant partial-remainder and performs a truncated multiplication of the

New techniques for improving the productivity and working environment of designers who use procedural layout techniques for implementing VLSI module generators are described. APL and C, as examples of interpreted and compiled languages, can be interf

A variation on the two-dimensional interconnection mesh is proposed which can be implemented very efficiently using VLSI technology for chips and packaging. Direct connectivity along rows and columns reduces the diagonal of an n*n 2-d mesh from 2n-2

In both laser-link-oriented wafer scale integration (WSI) and multichip modules (MCMs), arrays of devices may be ordered in such a way that the actual physical position of devices is extremely important. Traditional graphic-based design systems are n

Power saving techniques for CMOS programmable logic arrays (PLAs) are discussed. Two new techniques are introduced, an AND-plane pulse generator, and wired-OR CMOS. Power reduction in excess of 75% over pseudo-NMOS techniques and 50% over some clocke

We describe a 32-bit DRAM interface chip which controls 4 interleaved banks of standard commercial DRAMs with no additional glue chips. The chip performs transparent address translation on the column part of the address during the row access time. Ei

Our objective was to integrate an effective channel routing algorithm with the Chip Design Language (CDL) algorithmic layout tool. CDL uses technology targetable layout techniques, so that the output of the routing algorithm can easily be ported to d
