Why isolated flows negatively impact design schedule and PPA. Benefits of unified DFT, synthesis, and physical design flows. Physical implementation optimization methods for test compression and scan ...

Synthetic gene circuits are designed to implement novel biologic function, including cellular logic, dynamics and complex cellular and multicellular behaviours. A decade after emerging as a discipline ...

Digital Electronic Circuits: The Comprehensive View helps students as well as practical engineers understand the principles of digital circuits design, and their place and application in ...

In the semiconductor domain, the operating frequency of devices and the number of transistors in a single module increase over time. In this article, we will look at widely known low power ...

This study is led by Prof. Hongxin Yang (Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences) and Dr. Dongxing Yu (Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and ...

Techniques for IP reuse have become commonplace in the RTL design world. By contrast, physical design for reuse remains stuck at delivering restrictive “hard IP.†What is holding reuse-design back ...

Two test strategies are used to test virtually all IC logic: automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) with test pattern compression and logic built-in self-test (BIST). This article will describe how ...

We all know that hierarchy created for logic design must often be adjusted to map to a physical implementation. Logic hierarchy is typically constrained by non-implementation factors, especially ...

Read part 1 of this series on construction and operating principles here. Having understood the construction and basic operating principle of BLDC motor in the first part of this article, it becomes ...
