Using Feedback to Improve VLSI Designs
نویسنده
چکیده
VLSI HLS design is a typical design optimization problem with a focus on generating good solutions. Typical expert design systems incorporate a large amount of domain knowledge to generate good initial solutions. These systems are unable to use information gleaned from analysis of the solutions (feedback)to generate better solutions. This paper describes a new technique called Constrained-Redo that uses feedback to improve both the power and coverage of an existing design system, the DAA system.

متن کاملStrategies and Techniques for Optimizing Power in BIST: A Review
Power dissipation is a challenging problem in current VLSI designs. In general the power consumption of device is more in the testing mode than in the normal system operation. Built in self test (BIST) and scan-based BIST are the techniques used for testing and detecting the faulty components in the VLSI circuit. Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) in BIST generates pseudo-random patterns for...
