摘要:
A memory array is provided that comprises a plurality of global bit lines such that each bit line is coupled to a plurality of memory cells. The memory array further comprises a plurality of precharge logic such that each precharge logic is coupled to an associated global bit line in the plurality of global bit lines. Identification logic in the memory array is coupled to the plurality of precharge logic. The identification logic provides a precharge enable signal to a subset of the plurality of precharge logic on each clock cycle such that the subset of precharge logic precharges its associated subset of global bit lines to a voltage level of a voltage source, thereby reducing the power consumption of the memory array.

摘要:
A method for designing a circuit. The method includes (i) providing a netlist of a design and (ii) dividing the netlist into N user logics, N being a positive integer. After said dividing the netlist is performed, the N user logics in N macro test wrappers are instantiated resulting in N instantiated logics. After said instantiating the N user logics is performed, the N instantiated logics are processed. After said processing is performed, a result of said processing is back-annotated to the netlist.
摘要:
A computer readable medium, system and associated method is provided for designing an integrated circuit with inserted loops. The method comprises the steps of inserting a loop with tagged wire segments and/or vias in a fully routed and DCR clean integrated circuit; performing a DRC; and fixing DRC violations by removing tagged wire segments and/or vias which contribute to a violation.
