First, the CMOS circuit is partitioned into subcircuits called clusters. Next, the set of all minimum-width 1-D placements (chain covers) are generated for each cluster and form the input to the ILP model. The model aims at selecting exactly one cover for each cluster such that the overall 2-D cell width is minimized. In the process, all possible diffusion sharing between transistor chains belonging to clusters are considered; the inter-row connections that contribute to the overall cell width are also reduced. Experimental results demonstrate that the technique reduces run times by several orders of magnitude over non-hierarchical methods, and yields optimal or near-optimal layouts in most cases.","PeriodicalId":303635,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Tenth International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121026098","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 reconfiguration technique is a general one in the sense that it can be applied to any arbitrary architecture with any number of spares each of which may be connected to an arbitrary number of processing elements. The technique is composed of two stages, local and global reconfiguration. In the local reconfiguration stage, faulty cells are maximally mapped onto adjacent spares. In the global stage, the shortest path from a faulty cell to a spare is found and the spare is \"propagated\" to the faulty site by the logical displacement of processing elements along that path.","PeriodicalId":303635,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Tenth International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115183333","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 results in numerous drawbacks, namely, an area and power overhead, susceptibility of the bias lines to noise and cross-talk and high sensitivity of the bias point to process variations. In this paper we present a self-biasing technique for folded cascode CMOS op-amps that uses no additional devices and no bias voltages other than the two supply rails. The resulting self-biased op-amps are free from the above mentioned drawbacks and exhibit the same performance as existing folded casode op amps, except for a small reduction in slew rate. This is achieved by following transistor sizing constraints derived through detailed circuit analysis. The technique is applied to an existing high performance op amp. Simulation results show that the high performance is maintained while nine bias voltages are eliminated.","PeriodicalId":303635,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Tenth International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114416548","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}

An important power-optimization problem that arises in this context is the minimization of signal transitions on the off-chip buses connecting the ASIC and the memory. We address the problem of system power reduction through transition count minimization on the multiported, memory's address buses when these arrays are accessed from memory at execution time. We exploit regularity and spatial locality in the memory accesses and determine a power-efficient mapping of behavioral array references to physical locations as well as ports of a multiport memory. Our experiments on several image processing benchmarks show significant power savings through reduced transition activity on the memory address buses, compared to a straightforward mapping scheme.","PeriodicalId":303635,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Tenth International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"140 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122134159","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}

Towards this end we introduce algebraic procedures for node extraction and factorization that target low power consumption in combinational logic circuits. A new cost function is also proposed for the sum-of-products representation of the expressions. This cost function is used to guide the power optimization procedures. The spatial and temporal correlations of signals were taken into account to gain accurate power estimation. The results show that an average of 10% saving was gained in power using logic synthesis with the proposed accurate power estimation technique, compared to area optimized designs. Results also show that the power dissipation of the circuit, synthesized assuming temporally uncorrelated primary inputs, can dissipate 75% more power than that of the circuits assuming temporally correlated inputs.","PeriodicalId":303635,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Tenth International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117089846","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 author reviews the current techniques with a particular emphasis on today's Scan Designs. This entails distinguishing the differences between scan techniques, since all scans are not created equal! From this point the Testability Standards are discussed; these include the Boundary Scan activities and the Analog activities. Fault models are taking on more robust attributes, since the Stuck-At-Fault is necessary but not sufficient in today's technologies. The Delay Fault models are discussed with a comparison between a model which increases exponentially with gate count (Path Delay Fault) and one which increases linearly with gate count (Gate Delay Fault). Clearly, self-test is taking on an ever more important role which impacts both manufacturing testing and field system testing. The popular self-testing design techniques are shown. The interaction of testing and synthesis is discussed with a view on delay. Finally, the role of testing is explored in the new design environments which includes Hardware and Software Codesign.","PeriodicalId":303635,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Tenth International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126538982","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}
