Doubt on Voltage scaling
Hi,
What is the limit on voltage scaling. Lets say voltage is scaled below 1V, since current in a MOS is proportional to square of voltage, wont the current reduce drastically thereby increasing the delay significantly and hence affecting the freq.
Hi all,
Can someone explain how sub threshold leakage happens physically. Even when the voltage is zero, there is some amount of Ioff current, hows it possible?
Thank you
Hi All,
Suppose there is a long interconnect and we want to reduce the delay by adding buffers. Where should the buffers be added, at the mid point or towards the driver side or the destination side? Why?
Thank you
I will try to answer you question, but someone please correct me if I am wrong. I have no experience in VLSI and I am still a student.
Buffer is a back-to-back inverter with the first inverter being small and the second one being larger. So the logic preceding the buffer sees a lower gate...
Hi,
Thank you so much for your reply. Can you elaborate a little more about the SDC file. Should a new SDC file be wriiten for every new design which you do? How to give timing information related to millions of path in todays high density asics
Hi All,
The delay values given in Verilog statements cannot be synthesized by the tool, I have a doubt in this. The RTL designer would have given delay values to enhance timing and avoid timing failures and to bring about proper synchronization right. If this is not synthesizable, won't it lead...
Hi People,
I have an interview for circuit design for a last level cache. Please suggest some good books and research papers on cache design to prepare for this. It would be very helpful if there are books with questions and answers in addition to concepts as well. Looking forward to hearing...
