Abstract: A parasitic-aware single-edge triggered flip-flop reduces clock power through layout optimization, enabled through process-circuit co-optimization. The static pass-gate master-slave flip-flop utilizes novel layout optimization enabling significant power reduction. The layout removes the clock poly over notches in the diffusion area. Poly lines implement clock nodes. The poly lines are aligned between n-type and p-type active regions.

Abstract: A method comprising: dividing a 3D space into a voxel grid comprising a plurality of voxels; associating a plurality of distance values with the plurality of voxels, each distance value based on a distance to a boundary of an object; selecting an approximate interpolation mode for stepping a ray through a first one or more voxels of the 3D space responsive to the first one or more voxels having distance values greater than a threshold; and detecting the ray reaching a second one or more voxels having distance values less than the first threshold; and responsively selecting a precise interpolation mode for stepping the ray through the second one or more voxels.

Abstract: A new family of shared clock single-edge triggered flip-flops that reduces a number of internal clock devices from 8 to 6 devices to reduce clock power. The static pass-gate master-slave flip-flop has no performance penalty compared to the flip-flops with 8 clock devices thus enabling significant power reduction. The flip-flop intelligently maintains the same polarity between the master and slave stages which enables the sharing of the master tristate and slave state feedback clock devices without risk of charge sharing across all combinations of clock and data toggling. Because of this, the state of the flip-flop remains undisturbed, and is robust across charge sharing noise. A multi-bit time borrowing internal stitched flip-flop is also described, which enables internal stitching of scan in a high performance time-borrowing flip-flop without incurring increase in layout area.

Abstract: A family of novel, low power, min-drive strength, double-edge triggered (DET) input data multiplexer (Mux-D) scan flip-flop (FF) is provided. The flip-flop takes the advantage of no state node in the slave to remove data inverters in a traditional DET FF to save power, without affecting the flip-flop functionality under coupling/glitch scenarios.
