Post-placement voltage island generation for timing-speculative circuits
2013
Proceedings of the 50th Annual Design Automation Conference on - DAC '13
Different from conventional voltage island generation techniques that work in a conservative manner to guarantee "always correct" computation, in this work, we investigate the MSV design problem for timingspeculative ...
Region-based multi-supply voltage (MSV) design, by which circuits are partitioned into multiple "voltage islands" and each island operates at a supply voltage that meets its own performance requirement ...
In this work, we formulate the MSV design problem for timing-speculative circuits, and propose a novel DP-based algorithm to generate voltage islands. ...

The main reason for that is that unlike a SET where the gate voltage controls conductance between the source and the drain, an SEB is a two terminal device that requires either an integrated SET amplifier ...
The experiment shows that the lack of a path for a DC current makes SEBs and DCD SETs highly electrostatic discharge (ESD) tolerant, a very desirable feature for applications. ...
