As mainstream processing technology advances into 65 nm and beyond, many factors that were previously considered secondary or insignificant, can now have an impact on chip timing. One of these factor is inversed temperature dependence (ITD). As supply voltage continues scaling into sub-IV territory, delay-temperature relationship can be reversed on some cells, meaning that device switching time may...
Sublinear signal propagation delay in VLSI circuits carries a far greater penalty in wire area than is commonly realized. Therefore, the global complexity of VLSI circuits is more layout dependent than previously thought. This effect will be truly pronounced in the emerging wafer scale integration technology. We establish lower bounds on the trade-off between sublinear signalling speed and layout...
It is generally recognized that asynchronous operation of logic networks offers specific advantages over synchronous operation controlled by a central clock when the network is subject to large or widely varying inter-module propagation delays. In this paper we characterize several previously described techniques for achieving asynchronous operation by a single model. Essential to the model is the...
