Buffer insertion/sizing and wire sizing are the most effective and popular techniques to reduce interconnect delay and are traditionally applied to post-layout, optimization. As the SIA technology roadmap predicts, however, the number of interconnections among different blocks and that of buffers inserted in a chip for performance optimization will grow dramatically. It is obviously infeasible to insert/size hundreds of thousands buffers or wires during the post-layout stage when most routing regions are occupied. Therefore, it is critical to incorporate buffer-block and., wire-size planning into floorplanning to ensure timing closure and design convergence. In this paper, we first derive continuous buffer insertion/sizing and wire sizing formulae for performance optimization under a more accurate wire model, and then apply the formulate to interconnect-driven floorplanning that considers not only the buffer-block planning but also wire-size planning.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89600111","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 inductance extraction program FastHenry is used to evaluate the inductive properties of grid structured interconnect. In power distribution grids with alternating power and ground lines, the inductance is shown to vary linearly with grid length and inversely linearly with the number of lines in the grid. The inductance is also relatively constant with frequency in these grid structures. These properties provide accurate and efficient estimates of the inductance of power grid structures with various dimensions.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88460764","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 receiver stores the next state of the line while quiet. Upon detection of a transition at the end of the line the output is temporarily driven by the stored next state. Transitions at the output of the receiver are much faster than at the end of the line since they are generated locally. Using the TAGS receiver we can run a 15 mm line (180 nm node) at 800 MHz with no repeaters. The same line requires three repeaters with a traditional receiver and consumed more power and area. The TAGS receiver also outperforms a standard inverter at the 70 nm technology node. A noise analysis at the two technology nodes shows that the receiver maintains good functional noise immunity.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83388878","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}

This increase of capacity causes noise capable of propagating a logical fault. A poor evaluation of the crosstalk could be at the root of a malfunction of the circuit. Closed-form formulas are particularly efficient at determining design rules. From an analytical expression for crosstalk evaluation, we explore the performance gain through different intra-layer dielectrics, for a given typical geometry of an upper metal level of a deep sub-micron technology. This model predicts that by using a low-k dielectric equal to two, one can reduce the crosstalk voltage by about 25%, which can be employed on a possible reduction of the space between lines.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89881288","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}

For the selection of the wafers a location depth method is used. Since it would be too time-consuming to determine the SPICE parameters for all the wafers and compute the boundary wafers in the SPICE domain, we use a different approach. We compute the boundary wafers based on production control parameters and then we transform the production control parameter values to SPICE parameter values. With the SPICE parameter values obtained in this way the circuit simulation is performed and since we use the data of the boundary wafers, we cover the variation of the production process within a certain time period. The applied scheme proves to describe the performance variation of analog/mixed-signal designs very accurately with a small number of simulations. For validation purposes circuit simulations and measurements of benchmark circuits are compared. The statistical methods can easily be integrated into a mixed-signal design environment.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82359691","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}

Unlike Domino, the reconvergent path problem in skewed logic circuits may be overcome without logic duplication due to the static nature of skewed logic. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that alleviates the need for logic duplication when dealing with reconvergent paths in skewed logic circuits. We also propose a dynamic programming-based heuristic to determine a low-power clocking scheme for skewed logic circuits. Experimental results show that 32% of gates in a skewed logic circuit are duplicated, whereas 69% of gates in a Domino logic circuit are duplicated. The total power saving of skewed logic over Domino logic is 32.6% on average.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74758947","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}

Significant effort has been devoted in the reliability physics literature to setting of stress voltages. Chang and McCluskey formalized the test aspects of voltage stressing in their works on \"SHOVE (SHort VOltage Elevation)\" testing. Their work deals with 3.3V and 5V technologies where Fowler-Nordheim tunneling is dominant and suggests a stress energy of about 6MV/cm. In current generation technologies, Fowler-Nordheim tunneling is replaced by standard tunneling currents and operating energies are in the suggested stress range (e.g. 1.2V power supply with a 20/spl Aring/ oxide is 6MV/cm). Modified methods are developed to support this new situation, and a rest generation technique is introduced that enables substantial reduction in the number of stress vectors.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73885644","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 problem is further compounded with an increasing level of integration in the case of Systems-On-Chip (SOCs), for which existing test generation tools are inadequate. Many of the peripherals in a SOC design may not include testability features, which renders conventional design for testability (DFT) approaches ineffective. Functional tests applied at-speed in the native mode of a microprocessor have been shown to be effective in detecting realistic defects. A novel approach to adopt this strategy to generate test patterns for SOCs is presented in this paper. This approach utilizes the core processor's instruction set to test its own functionality and that of the peripheral components. A SOC based on a model of the Intel 8085 processor is used to show the effectiveness of this approach.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91532897","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}

This technique, called thermal-aware microprocessor (TAM), uses on-chip thermal sensors to detect hot-spots within the microprocessor die. There is a secondary pipeline within the core. It is architecturally simple with ultra low power implementation. This secondary pipeline has two main functions: 1. thermal relieve; 2. ultra low power implementation for certain mobile environment (such as any where any time email connect function). When temperature exceeds a given threshold, the core superscalar pipelines are clock-gated while a secondary in-order pipeline is engaged. Since the secondary pipeline consumes much less power, it will have a much lower temperature, and therefore, it will provide a temporary thermal relieve to the core pipelines when the thermal/power mechanism is triggered. This relief reduces energy loss due to leakage, prevents overheating to improve product reliability, and eases cost for thermal solutions. The TAM can also combine with other low power techniques such voltage scaling to achieve ultra low power.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86797922","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}
