Since achieving high yield is the target of any fab, the design rules should ensure this. Design rules violations happening after fabrication lead to disastrous results on the mask sets as well as increased cost and delayed schedules. Here comes the importance of verifying these design rules and making sure that they represent the process in a manner that achieves a high yield and detects design rules issues early on. The verification process consumes 60% of the release cycle and the most time consuming step in the process is the Design rules checking (DRC) verification. Advanced technology nodes introduced stricter design rules as well as new design techniques, which added more complexity to the design rules development and verification. This paper presents a novel flow for automating the most time consuming part of the (DRC) rule decks verification, which is test cases creation and allows users to enhance the quality of the verification process and increase the testing coverage as well. And eventually reduces the time consumed in verification to 26% of what it was using conventional verification methods.","PeriodicalId":215448,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits, and Systems (ICECS)","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129603259","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}

Current proposals in MPSoCs scheduling have static behaviors or lack accurate validation, from a clock cycle model of the system. This paper proposes a hierarchical scheduling algorithm. At the bottom level, each PE executes a local LST-based scheduler algorithm with extended features to handle with inter-task communication and interruption overheads. At the top level, a global scheduler manages at run-time task mapping and real-time adaptation by using task migration and monitored information. The run-time adaptation is supported by a slack time monitoring that notifies the global scheduler the slack time of the PEs. The monitoring data, combined with traditional real-time metrics, provide a powerful real-time management that, as demonstrated by a clock cycle validation, can be implemented in large scale MPSoCs.","PeriodicalId":215448,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits, and Systems (ICECS)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129422518","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}

A comparison among different analog to digital converters (including successive approximation register, algorithmic/cyclic, and pipeline ADC architectures) are discussed. It is shown that a multi-path architecture provides the ability to measure and correct bit errors, squaring the bit error performance without additional analog area or power. We provide a comparative study of bit error rate among the different architectures and an error power calculation method that may be applied to further variations on these architectures, without time-consuming transient simulations.","PeriodicalId":215448,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits, and Systems (ICECS)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124308983","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}

Both messages classes normally use the same communication infrastructure. Thus, the application traffic can be adversely impacted by the management traffic. Several works observe that different messages classes can be distributed into multiple NoCs, improving the performance and power consumption of the platform. However, these works mainly target shared memory systems. This work suggests the utilization of multiple NoCs in an MPSoC using distributed memory architecture, specializing each network for different message classes. An improvement of up to 40% in the application messages jitter and an average improvement of 5% in the application execution time can be achieved using this strategy.","PeriodicalId":215448,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits, and Systems (ICECS)","volume":"329 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121260690","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}

Furthermore, an equivalent lumped circuit model of the filter is proposed to verify this observation. The S-parameters of lumped element circuit model are obtained using the ADS simulator and compared with the results obtained from the EM simulator showing good agreement.","PeriodicalId":215448,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits, and Systems (ICECS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117095511","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}

SRAMs have the highest energy contribution in such applications. Energy consumption can be decreased by lowering the supply voltage. However, SRAM bitcells impose a lower bound on the supply voltage. In this paper, ultra low-voltage SRAM design optimization is investigated in a 65nm technology. It is shown that the bitcell design at low-voltages is fairly different than that at nominal ones. Using aggressive write/read-assist techniques, the well-known 6-transistor bitcell can operate down to 0.5V. Five different optimized design options are compared. Write-optimized bitcells are shown to be optimal for ultra low-voltage operation.","PeriodicalId":215448,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits, and Systems (ICECS)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128478875","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}
