Increasing process variability [1] [2] for new technologies coupled with increased reliability effects like negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) [3] all contribute to raising the minimum voltage required for stable SRAM. Our strategy is to improve the noise margin of the 6T SRAM cell by reducing the effect of parametric variation of the cell [4], especially in the low voltage operation mode. This is done using a novel circuit that selectively reduces the voltage swing on the world line and reduces the memory supply voltage during write operation. The proposed design increases the SRAM static noise margin (SNM) and write margin using a single voltage supply and with minimum impact to chip area, complexity, and timing. The technique supports both on-chip corner identification to adapt the SRAM behavior to silicon, and software controllability to tradeoff yield, power, and performance.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115537735","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 part of the tutorial will discuss in detail the manufacturing challenges in nanoscale VLSI and consequent design for manufacturability (DFM) approaches by taking a holistic approach in analyzing and addressing different process variability effects. We review the dominant process variations in semiconductor manufacturing process that affect the design yield, show their impact on layout quality, and present currently practiced DFM techniques to mitigate the effect of these variations. We also discuss various manufacturing-aware physical and circuit design methodologies and techniques for parametric yield improvement. This includes correct-by-construction methodologies such as Restricted Design Rules (RDRs) as well as manufacturing aware design approaches. In addition, we will briefly mention some of the many accepted and possible mitigation techniques in design post processing (after tape-out) and will introduce the concept of manufacturing for design (MFD) through design-intent processing.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"1120 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123345670","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}

Based on theoretical analysis of random field, the spectral density, as the spectral domain counterpart of correlation function, is employed to estimate the parameters of the correlation function effectively in the spectral domain. Compared with the existing extraction algorithm in the original spatial domain, the proposed method can obtain the same quality of results in the spectral domain. In actual measurement process, the unavoidable measurement error with arbitrary frequency components would greatly confound the extraction results. A filtering technique is further proposed to diminish the high frequency components of the measurement error and recover the data from noise contamination for parameter estimation.

In this paper, we present a methodology to mitigate temperature-induced reliability problems by transferring the heat dissipated in a region of high activity (such as the ALU in a processor that creates localized \"hotspot\") to regions of lower activity (such as on-chip cache). We propose to use carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as \"thermal interconnect\" for on-die heat transfer since CNTs have significantly higher thermal conductivity than typical heat-spreader materials. We note that the proposed heat transfer framework is particularly suitable to thermal management in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) devices, which suffer from fine-grained thermal gradient. Simulation results indicate that the use of CNTs for heat conduction from hotspot to a region of lower activity (which we denote as a 'coolspot'), achieves 13% (16degC) decrease in temperature at the hotspot and only 3% (1.5degC) increase in temperature at the coolspot of an alpha microprocessor model.","PeriodicalId":243121,"journal":{"name":"9th International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (isqed 2008)","volume":"2 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123636728","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 measured VDDmin is determined by the intra-die threshold voltage random variations and increased from 91 mV to 224 mV when the number of RO stages increased from 11 to 1001, which hinders the VDD scaling. Lowering VDDmin is difficult, since it would require an impractical inverter-by-inverter adaptive body bias control.
