The use of hierarchical DFT methods is growing as design size and complexity stresses memory requirements and design schedules. Hierarchical DFT divides the design into smaller pieces, creates test ...
The rapidly shrinking process geometry is a double-edged sword. It allows unprecedented integration of circuits. But it also produces leakier transistors, which is one of the main reasons behind the ...

Fundamental limitations separate synthesis fromplace and route – linked by wire load models – in180-nm technology and 300-MHz designs. In thepast year,conventional synthesis,even with extensions such ...
Cell library: A compilation of standard cells, hard-IP (intellectual-property) cores, and other macro blocks that comprise different functions within a library that a layout tool uses to construct a ...
Hierarchical design methodologies that introduce concurrency into the design flow are the answer to burgeoning circuit complexity. Synopsys's Steve Kister discusses various challenges to design ...
September 11, 2013. Synopsys Inc. has announced the availability of its DesignWare STAR Hierarchical System, an automated hierarchical test solution for efficiently testing SoCs, including ...
