Path Optimization Protocol Based on Speed Low Power Metrics

Résumé

The design of high performance circuits implies to manage CAD tools with physical level defined indicators. In this paper, we validate a design space exploration method, defining maximum and minimum delay bounds on logical paths. Then we adapt this method to a "constant sensitivity method" allowing to size a circuit at minimum area under a delay constraint. Three techniques are characterized: path global sizing, local buffer insertion and mixed sizing and buffer insertion. These methods are implemented in an optimization tool and compared on ISCAS'85 benchmarks with an industrial tool.
