As technology scales,
relative transistor and interconnect variability
increases. Left unchecked,
variability could become a serious challenge
to design performance.
Careful analysis and characterization, together
with variability
management techniques, can reduce pessimism and enable
higher quality design.
This panel explores methods available to
characterize and mitigate
the effects of variability, from manufacturing
process control, through
physical IP design, to place and route. |
