Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical stress aware optimization for leakage power reduction
TL;DR: A circuit-level, block-based, stress-enhanced optimization algorithm that uses stress-optimized layouts in conjunction with dual-V th assignment to achieve optimal power-performance tradeoffs is proposed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Self-Timed Regenerators for High-Speed and Low-Power Interconnect
TL;DR: A new circuit technique called self-timed regenerator (STR) to improve both speed and power for on-chip global interconnects to compensate the loss in resistive wires and to amplify the effect of inductance in the wires to enable transmission line like behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of low-impedance substrate on power supply integrity
TL;DR: It is shown how a low-impendance substrate can make a substantial difference in the noise generated by the power grid, especially on the relationship of the power delivery system to the silicon substrate properties.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A 224 PW 260 PPM/°C Gate-Leakage-Based Timer for Ultra-Low Power Sensor Nodes with Second-Order Temperature Dependency Cancellation

TL;DR: This work proposes a gate-leakage-based frequency-locked timer with first- and second-order cancellation achieving 260 ppm/°C from −5 to 95°C and consumes 224 pW at 90 Hz output frequency.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Crosstalk noise estimation using effective coupling capacitance
TL;DR: An accurate and efficient method to estimate the crosstalk noise caused by multiple aggressor nets by multiplying the coupling capacitance with a load factor is proposed and is shown to produce promising results.
