Efficient High-Speed On-Chip Global Interconnects
The continuous miniaturization of integrated circuits has opened the path towards System-on-Chip realizations. Process shrinking into the nanometer regime improves transistor performance while the delay of global interconnects, connecting circuit blocks separated by a long distance, significantly increases. In fact, global interconnects extending across a full chip can have a delay correspondin...
متن کاملAm Efficient Inductance Modeling for On-chip Interconnects
In this paper, we present an efficient yet accurate inductance extraction methodology. We first show that without loss of accuracy, the extraction problem of n traces can be reduced to a number of one-trace and two-trace subproblems. We then solve one-trace and two-trace subproblems via a tablebased approach. The table-based inductance model has been integrated with a statistically-based RC mod...
متن کاملOn - Chip Interconnects for Multicores
......Multicore chips are entering commercial and consumer markets at a ferocious pace. They began in special-purpose, niche markets such as high-performance graphics and networking; examples are the eight-core IBM-Sony-Toshiba Cell processor, the 128core Nvidia GeForce 8800 GPU, and the 188-core Cisco Silicon Packet Processor in the CRS-1 router. Recently, multicore chips have been introduced ...
متن کاملOn-chip Interconnects
The delay per unit length of on-chip wires, as determined by a diffusive RC-limited response and as measured relative to gate delays, approximately doubles every technology generation as wire resistances per unit length increase and gate delays decrease with scaling. Furthermore, these wire delays (D) grow quadratically with wire length, D ° RwireCwireL. Wire bandwidths, which are inversely pro...
متن کاملInductance Modeling for On-chip Interconnects
As the operation frequency reaches gigahertz in deep-submicron designs, the effects of inductance on noise and delay can no longer be neglected. Most of the previous works on inductance extraction are fieldsolvers, which are intrinsically more accurate but computationally expensive. Others focus on modeling the inductances of special routing topologies such as the bus structure. Therefore, it i...
