In a parallel multiwire structure, the exact spacing and size of the wires determine both the resistance and the distribution of the capacitance between the ground plane and the adjacent signal carrying conductors, and have a direct effect on the delay. Using closed-form equations that map the geometry to the wire parasitics and empirical switch factor based delay models that show how repeaters can be optimized to compensate for dynamic effects, we devise a method of analysis for optimizing throughput over a given metal area. This analysis is used to show that there is a clear optimum configuration for the wires which maximizes the total bandwidth. Additionally, closed form equations are derived, the roots of which give close to optimal solutions. It is shown that for wide buses, the optimal wire width and spacing are independent of the total width of the bus, allowing easy optimization of on-chip buses. Our analysis and results are valid for lossy interconnects as are typical of wires in submicron technologies. 相似文献

New models for estimating delay and noise in VLSI circuits, based on closed form expressions for the first and second moment of the impulse response in coupled RC trees are reported. The effect of crosstalk on delay and noise can be accurately estimated with a complexity only marginally higher than the Elmore delay. 相似文献

A smart repeater is proposed for driving capacitively-coupled, global-length on-chip interconnects that alters its drive strength dynamically to match the relative bit pattern on the wires and thus the effective capacitive load. This is achieved by partitioning the driver into main and assistant drivers; for a higher effective load capacitance both drivers switch, while for a lower effective capacitance the assistant driver is quiet. In a UMC 0.18-mum technology the potential energy saving is around 10% and the reduction in jitter 20%, in comparison to a traditional repeater for typical global wire lengths. It is also shown that the average energy saving for nanometer technologies is in the range of 20% to 25%. The driver architecture exploits the fact that as feature sizes decrease, the capacitive load per transistor shrinks, whereas global wire loads remain relatively unchanged. Hence, the smaller the technology, the greater the potential saving. 相似文献
