Under this model, a fault is associated with a pair of lines and a pair of transitions on these lines. The model captures the effects of defects that increase the delays of two (or more) individual lines by an amount that causes the circuit to fail when signals are propagated through both lines. It thus provides a simplification of the path delay fault model, that does not suffer from the exponential behavior of this model. We propose a test generation procedure for double transition faults, based on reordering of a given test set for stuck-at faults. The procedure does not require enumeration of all double transition faults, and is thus applicable to circuits with large numbers of lines. We present experimental results of this procedure for several benchmark circuits.","PeriodicalId":191171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth Great Lakes Symposium on VLSI","volume":"359 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124520722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The more general of our algorithms computes an optimal configuration for a wide variety of optimization functions, while the other computes a minimum configuration of rectangles and L-shapes. Both run in O(n+h log h) time, where n is the number of vertices in the polygon and h is the number of H-pairs. Experimental results on VLSI data demonstrate the gains in performance for corner stitching obtained by using our algorithms instead of traditional rectangular partitioning algorithms.","PeriodicalId":191171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth Great Lakes Symposium on VLSI","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134258100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At larger feature size the interconnect delay contribution was small and the driver resistance was very large compared to wire resistance. Consequently, a simple lumped model was sufficient for evaluating and optimizing circuit delay. However, with sub-micron processes, the contribution of interconnect delay dominates the stage delay and the wire resistance becomes noticeable, making the interconnect delay dependent on the routing topology. Hence it is becoming necessary to use a more accurate model for estimating and optimizing interconnect delay. This paper surveys the recent advancements in techniques for generating on-chip interconnect topology for optimizing circuit performance.","PeriodicalId":191171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth Great Lakes Symposium on VLSI","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129351413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of the algorithm is to minimize a cost function (e.g., total area or power) subject to given timing constraints on the sinks of the net. An interesting side-effect of our approach is that we are able to derive an entire cost/delay tradeoff curve for added flexibility. The solutions produced by the algorithm are optimal subject to the constraint that the routing topology be induced by a permutation on the sinks of the net. We show that high quality sink permutations can be derived from a given routing structure such as the minimum spanning tree. This derivation provides an error bound on the minimum area solution induced by the permutation. The effectiveness of our algorithm is demonstrated experimentally.","PeriodicalId":191171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth Great Lakes Symposium on VLSI","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126873134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The approach selects a set of long paths from a combinational circuit by means of a performance optimization oriented heuristic path selection approach. The longest sensitizable path delay of the circuit can be restricted within the specified delay limit if we set the specified delay limit on these paths in an LP based iterative gate sizing process. Since the approach get rid of unnecessary delay constraints on long false paths, results with smaller circuit area or power dissipation is expected. Experiments on benchmark circuits show that the proposed approach can substantially reduce the circuit area and power dissipation by considering path sensitization for some false path dominated circuits.","PeriodicalId":191171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Sixth Great Lakes Symposium on VLSI","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125627559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
