Tight integration of timing-driven synthesis and placement of parallel multiplier circuits.

Tight integration of timing-driven synthesis and placement of parallel multiplier circuits.

In deep submicrometer (DSM) design, the interconnect delay becomes equally as or more important than that of logic gates. In particular, to achieve timing closure in DSM design, it is essential to consider the interconnect delay at an early stage of the synthesis process. Unfortunately, few successe...
