In nanoscale technologies that experience large levels of process variation, post-silicon adaptation is an important step in circuit design. These adaptation techniques are often based on measurements of a replica of the nominal critical path, whose variations are intended to reflect those of the entire circuit after manufacturing. For realistic circuits, where the number of critical paths can be...
This paper proposes a new approach to analyze crosstalk of coupled interconnects in the presence of process variations. The suggested method translates correlated process variations into orthogonal random variables by principle component analysis (PCA). combined with polynomial chaos expression (PCE), the technique utilizes Stochastic Collocation Method (SCM) to analyze the system response of coupled...
We present a generic method for analyzing the effect of process variability in nanoscale circuits. The proposed framework uses kernel and a generic tail probability estimator to eliminate the need for a-priori density choice for the nature of circuit variation. This allows capturing the true nature of the circuit variation from a few random samples of its observed responses. The data-driven, non-parametric,...
The dramatic increase in leakage current, coupled with the swell in process variability in nano-scaled CMOS technologies, has become a major issue for future IC design. Moreover, due to the spread of leakage power values, leakage variability cannot be neglected anymore. In this work an accurate analytic estimation and modeling methodology has been developed for logic gates leakage under statistical...
