When a company designs and sells ICs but outsources their manufacture, design for manufacturability poses special challenges. It is clear that these DfM solutions are very complex and require a series of fundamental new physical models and design practices. Practical deployment of DfM solutions requires development of an entire incremental infrastructure on both the process and design sides of the...
This paper describes a design flow for the circuit-level optimization of a technology. The concurrent exploration of device characteristics and library design choices leads to a more application-optimal technology. We illustrate the design flow by: 1) analyzing the impact of buffer cell design, and 2) by optimizing a 130 nm technology for low operational power.
