A slew-driven clock tree synthesis (SLECTS) methodology is proposed for nanoscale technologies where the interconnect resistance dominates device resistance, thereby increasing the challenge of satisfying the slew constraint. This issue is exacerbate
Power gating is a widely used leakage power saving strategy in modern chip designs. However, power gating introduces unique power integrity issues and trade-offs between switching and rush current (wake-up) supply noises. At the same time, the amount

Power-distribution networks of very large-scale integrated (VLSI) chips should be designed carefully to ensure reliable performance. A sound power network requires an adequate number of power-supply input connections (pads and pins). Placing them at

Although it is tempting to think of the power grid as an independent medium of the transfer of energy from the package to the devices in the IC, some second-order technology-related effects can sometimes cause unforeseen problems. This article focuse

Static timing analysis has traditionally used the PERT method for identifying the critical path of a circuit. The authors show in this paper that due to the influence of the transition time of a signal on the subsequent path delay, the traditional ti

Library elements (or standard cells) are basic building blocks of integrated circuits. These are built early in the technology cycle. Small changes to library elements can result in significant power/performance changes to large designs instantiating

Standard cells are basic building blocks, crucial for digital designs. Manufacturability improvements in standard cells have huge leverage, returning big benefits in yield and performance to all designs which may use them. Most of the benefits can be

Standard cells are fundamental circuit building blocks designed at very early design stages. Nanometer standard cells are prone to lithography proximity and process variations. How to design robust cells under variations plays a crucial role in the o

As the transistors are scaled down, undesirable performance mismatch in identically designed transistors increases and hence causes greater impact on circuit performance and yield. Since Line-End Roughness (LER) has been reported to be in the order o

For timing analysis, each flip-flop and latch in a standard library is characterized for two constraints: setup time and hold time constraints. These constraints need to be characterized for their sensitivities to the variation parameters in order to
