Proceedings ArticleDOI
Exploring regular fabrics to optimize the performance-cost trade-off
Larry Pileggi,Herman Schmit,Andrzej J. Strojwas,P. Gopalakrishnan,Veerbhan Kheterpal,Aneesh Koorapaty,C. Patel,Vyacheslav Rovner,K. Y. Tong +8 more
TL;DR: Some of the trade-offs to consider for determination of how much regularity a particular IC or application can afford are discussed, and a Via Patterned Gate Array is proposed as one such example.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Design methodology for IC manufacturability based on regular logic-bricks
Veerbhan Kheterpal,Vyacheslav Rovner,Thiago Hersan,D. Motiani,Y. Takegawa,Andrzej Strojwas,Larry Pileggi +6 more
TL;DR: A full-mask-set design methodology is proposed which provides the same physical design coherence as a configurable array, but with area and other design benefits comparable to standard cell ASICs.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Maximization of layout printability/manufacturability by extreme layout regularity
TL;DR: It will be shown that with a small set of Boolean functions and careful selection of lithography friendly patterns, the performance of logic built upon regular fabrics can surpass that of seemingly more arbitrarily constructed logic.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Regular logic fabrics for a via patterned gate array (VPGA)
TL;DR: This paper describes the design of lookup tables (LUTs) similar to those used in FPGAs, but restructured for via-patternability and performance, and compares several logic block designs based on the heterogeneous regular logic fabrics with those constructed using standard cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maximization of layout printability/manufacturability by extreme layout regularity
Tejas Jhaveri,Vyacheslav Rovner,Larry Pileggi,Andrzej J. Strojwas,Dipti Motiani,Veerbhan Kheterpal,K. Y. Tong,Thiago Hersan,Davide Pandini +8 more
TL;DR: This work describes the use of a regular design fabric for defining the underlying layout geometries of the circuit and introduces the basis to exploit the regularity in the layout patterns by using "pushed-rules" for logic design, as is commonly done for static random access memory (SRAM).
