devices with a large fan-in are slower than their low fan-in counter parts, because the complexity of the input circuitry increases the input capacitance of the device.
"fan in: connects components with large no of partitions to the components with small no of partitions.ex: departition components
fanout: connects components with small no of partition to the large no of prtitions.
ex: partition components."
Can you give an example of a component with large nof partition and a component with small no: of partition. I couldn't understand what is meant by partition. And after all what is the effect of large fan-in which was the first question in the thread.:?:
