Detailed Placement Technique Global Swap: Evaluating Optimal Region
Detailed Placement Technique Global Swap: Evaluating Optimal Region
My experimentation of re-deriving the Vpeak and twidth with ramp, step and
exponential functions gave me gist of the amount of work that has been put
in order to write this article. Also, the analysis performed on the obtained
results is exhaustive and a few among them are quoted below.
1. The noise twidth is monotonic function and is bounded by (tr , tr + tv
ln2).
2. The product of noise peak voltage and width is bounded by (tx , tx ln2)
3. The victim driver sizing effective only if Rs C1< Re CL.
4. It is effective to do wire spacing rather than wire sizing.
The most interesting thing is to prove that the Vittal and Devgan models are
the special cases of 2-pi model.
The aforementioned techniques and models gave me great insight into the
field of VLSI CAD and optimization.
