A high bandwidth critical path monitor (1 sample/ cycle at 4-5 GHz) capable of providing real-time timing margin information to a variable voltage/frequency scaling control loop is described. The critical path monitor tracks the critical path delay to within 1 FO2 inverter delay with a standard deviation less than 3 FO2 delays over process, voltage, temperature, and workload. The CPM is sensitive...
Simple ring-oscillator circuit has been used to estimate the degradation in circuit performance due to negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) effect but it fails to isolate the degradation from the NBTI for PMOS and the positive bias temperature instability (PBTI) for NMOS in high-K dielectric/metal gate CMOS technology. In this paper, we propose new circuit structures which monitor the NBTI...
