Area-time tradeoffs for universal VLSI circuits
An area-universal VLSI circuit can be programmed to emulate every circuit of a given area, but at the cost of lower area-time performance. In particular, if a circuit with area-time bounds (A, T ) is emulated by a universal circuit with bounds (Au, Tu), we say that the universal circuit has blowup Au/A and slowdown Tu/T . A central question in VLSI theory is to investigate the inherent costs an...
متن کاملExtraction of critical areas for opens in large VLSI circuits
This paper describes a new algorithm for the extraction of the critical area for opens. The presented algorithm allows for the analysis of large IC’s and non-Manhattan geometry. Concept of the contact/via contacting regions is proposed and its relevance is discussed. Illustrative examples of the proposed algorithm are presented.
متن کاملSpice Compatible Model for Multiple Coupled Nonuniform Transmission Lines Application in Transient Analysis of VLSI Circuits
An SPICE compatible model for multiple coupled nonuniform lossless transmission lines (TL's) is presented. The method of the modeling is based on the steplines approximation of the nonuniform TLs and quasi-TEM assumptions. Using steplines approximation the system of coupled nonuniform TLs is subdivided into arbitrary large number of coupled uniform lines (steplines) with different characteristi...
متن کاملCritical Area Computation { a New
In this paper we present a new approach for computing the critical area for shorts in a circuit layout. The critical area calculation is the main computational problem in VLSI yield prediction. The method is based on the concept of Voronoi diagrams and computes the critical area for shorts (for all possible defect radii, assuming square defects) accurately in O(n log n) time, where n is the siz...
متن کاملVLSI Circuits for Cryptographic Authentication
Nowadays, digital communication protocols rely on cryptographic mechanisms to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access and modification. Cryptographic primitives, such as hash functions, block and stream ciphers, are key components of many information security applications, employed to provide privacy, authentication, and data integrity. Following the massive differentiation of mo...
