| Résumé : |
This book carefully details design tools and techniques for high-performance ASIC design. Using these techniques, the performance of ASIC designs can be improved by two to three times.
Important topics include:
-Improving performance through microarchitecture;
-Timing-driven floorplanning;
-Controlling and exploiting clock skew;
-High performance latch-based design in an ASIC methodology;
-Automatically identifying and synthesizing complex logic gates;
-Automated cell sizing to increase performance and reduce power;
-Controlling process variation.
These techniques are illustrated by designs running two to three times the speed of typical ASICs in the same process generation. |
