This is based on the system semantics principle. This principle allows one to define a language that provides a unified syntax to describe the different aspects of an Op-Amp. This is possible because the basic components of an Op-Amp are adirectional systems. These components are described by combinators. A set of semantic functions are applied to these combinators to give them meaning.","PeriodicalId":242487,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ASP-DAC '97: Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114863752","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}

In the past, this approach is reasonable because the half-perimeter value correlates well with the wiring area. As we are entering the deep-submicron era, the approach is no longer appropriate because the wiring delay must be characterized based on a distributed-RC model, in which not only the wiring area but also the wiring topology affects the wiring delay. In this paper, we show that the half-perimeter metric does not correlate well with the wiring delay under the distributed-RC model. We show that the radius of a net estimates the wiring delay more accurately than the half-perimeter metric does. We expand the acceptance criteria of a simulated annealing based placement tool to include moves that do not improve on the wiring length but do reduce the radius. Over all, for a set of benchmark circuits the critical path delays are improved up to 15%.","PeriodicalId":242487,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ASP-DAC '97: Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"210 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124729306","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}

Challenges faced in the microelectronic area include growing system complexity, higher operating speed, denser design at all levels of integration (chip, printed circuit board, MCM and system). Growing complexity, denser design and higher speed all lead to a substantial increase in EMC problems and design time. EMC is not commonly accepted in microelectronic design. Microelectronic designers have the opinion that EMC has to do with electrical and electronic systems and mandatory product regulations instead of requirements to the integrated circuit they are designing, In this contribution a concept for an EMC-adequate design of electronic systems will be introduced. This concept is based on a generalized development process to integrate EMC-constraints into system design. A prototype of an environment to analyse signal integrity effects on PCB based on a workflow oriented integration approach will be introduced. Based on this approach the generation of user specific design and analysis environments including various set of EMC-tools is possible,.","PeriodicalId":242487,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ASP-DAC '97: Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114210750","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}

In FPGAs, the wire delay may contribute to a significant portion of the overall design delay.

We show the results of experiments with an R3000-compatible processor model. This environment verified our processor model with SPEC benchmarks that require various OS services.

Functional sensitization is only performed for path segments contained in these regions.

Most partitioning methods use statistical analysis to find the threshold value and then to determine the size of a module. These methods are rigid and inflexible, since IDDQ testing requires the measurement of an analog quantity rather than a digital signal. In this paper, we propose a fuzzy-based approach which provides a soft threshold to determine the module size for BICT partitioning. Evaluation results show that our design approach indeed provides a feasible way to exploit the design space of BICT partitioning.","PeriodicalId":242487,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ASP-DAC '97: Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125693776","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}
