Multi Cycle Paths By default, we expect every timing path to meet setup time in a single clock cycle. However, we can also specify that some data is captured only after a specified number of clock cycles. Till
With CMOS technology scaling, design for reliability becomes a vitally important part in today's design cycle. Aging mechanisms, such as NBTI and CHC, degrade the performance of a circuit over time, eventually causing system functional failure. NBTI predominantly affects digital circuits, inducing ...

The semi-transparent red dashed lines represent the optical path of the interferometer defined by the SU-8 photoresist waveguides (Fig. 5d, center), that expand and are collimated by the lenses (Fig. 5d-iii) to split into two parallel beam paths, one through the channel and one ...
The tunability of electrical polarization in ferroelectrics is instrumental to their applications in information-storage devices. The existing ferroelectric memory cells are based on the two-level storage capacity with the standard binary logics. However

The multilevel floorplanning framework illustrated in FIGS. 3A-3F is known as the “V-Cycle” framework, but it may be more descriptively called a “Λ-shaped” framework since it includes an initial bottom-up clustering phase followed by a top-down declustering phase. A P&R tool employing ...

To build large systems composed of multiple VLSI chips and synchronous parallel inter-chip communication, IO clocks are preferably generated in such a way that they will be synchronized across multiple IC chips. Typically this is achieved with a phase-locked loop (PLL) in each chip. The PLL ...
Furthermore, embodiments of the MCM may be used in a variety of applications, including: VLSI circuits, communication systems (such as in wavelength division multiplexing), storage area networks, data centers, networks (such as local area networks), and/or computer systems (such as multiple proce...
