    摘要: An iterative timing analysis is analytically performed before a chip is fabricated, based on a methodology using optical proximity correction techniques for shortening the gate lengths and adjusting metal line widths and proximity distances of critical time sensitive devices. The additional mask is used as a selective trim to form shortened gate lengths or wider metal lines for the selected, predetermined transistors, affecting the threshold voltages and the RC time constants of the selected devices. Marker shapes identify a predetermined subgroup of circuitry that constitutes the devices in the critical timing path. The analysis methodology is repeated as often as needed to improve the timing of the circuit with shortened designed gate lengths and modified RC timing constants until manufacturing limits are reached. A mask is made for the selected critical devices using OPC techniques.

    摘要: A strike indicator that indicates when a fish bites and reduces false positives, comprising a light source, a power source, a printed circuit board, an accelerometer integrated circuit mounted on said printed circuit board, and a microcontroller mounted on said printed circuit board. The strike indicator may be housed in a fishing rod, with the light source illuminating the tip of the rod. The accelerometer detects acceleration of the rod, and the microcontroller utilizes an algorithm to determine whether the acceleration is due to a fish biting or due to other causes. If the acceleration is due to a fish biting, the light source is activated, alerting the user that a fish is biting.

    摘要: A hybrid linear wire model for tuning the transistor widths of circuits linked by RC interconnects is described. The method uses two embedded simulators during the tuning process on netlists that contain resistors (Rs). A Timing oriented simulator is used only for timing purposes on the original netlist that includes all the Rs. A Gradient oriented simulator is then run only on the modified netlist with all Rs shorted and within the iterative loop of the tuner to compute gradients. The present hybrid method achieves a significant improvement in computational speed. The Timing oriented simulator is fast and accurate for only timing netlists with Rs, but cannot compute gradients efficiently. The Gradient oriented simulator computes gradients efficiently but cannot do so in the presence of Rs. To prevent “de-tuning” that typically occurs when all Rs are shorted, ‘wire-adjusts’ are provided that make the initial timing results using the Gradient oriented simulator on the shorted netlist match the timing results using Timing oriented simulator on the original netlist. This permits the optimizer sense initially the correct set of critical timing paths, and more significantly, it permits the wire-adjusts keep track of the changing transistor widths to guide the optimizer during the iterations until convergence is achieved.

    摘要翻译: 描述了用于调谐由RC互连链接的电路的晶体管宽度的混合线性线模型。 在调谐过程中,该方法使用两个嵌入式模拟器,其中包含电阻(Rs)。 面向计时的模拟器仅用于包含所有Rs的原始网表的时序目的。 然后,一个面向梯度的模拟器仅在修改后的网表上运行,所有的Rs都已经短路,并在调谐器的迭代循环内计算梯度。 目前的混合方法实现了计算速度的显着提高。 面向时序的模拟器只需要具有Rs的时间网络列表即可快速准确,但无法有效地计算渐变。 梯度导向模拟器有效地计算梯度,但在Rs的存在下不能这样做。 为了防止所有Rs短路时通常发生的“去调谐”,提供“线调整”,使得在短路网表上使用面向梯度的模拟器的初始定时结果与使用定时模型的原始网表上的定时结果相匹配 。 这允许优化器最初感测正确的关键定时路径集合,并且更重要的是,它允许线路调整跟踪改变的晶体管宽度,以在迭代期间引导优化器直到实现收敛。
