摘要
Imagine流处理器是一个2100万个晶体管芯片,由斯坦福大学和德州仪器合作,采用1.5 V 0.15 /spl mu/m工艺,采用五层铝金属。介绍了Imagine处理器的VLSI设计、时钟和验证方法。这些方法使一个资源有限的研究生小组能够在现代ASIC流程中设计出高性能的媒体处理器。
VLSI design and verification of the Imagine processor
The Imagine stream processor is a 21 million transistor chip implemented by a collaboration between Stanford University and Texas Instruments in a 1.5 V 0.15 /spl mu/m process with five layers of aluminum metal. The VLSI design, clocking, and verification methodologies for the Imagine processor are presented. These methodologies enabled a small team of graduate students with limited resources to design a high-performance media processor in a modern ASIC flow.
