…………………………………………………………………………………………………….... Introduction:-In deep submicron Integrated Circuits (IC) technologies, process-induced parameter variations cause performance fluctuations, which is an important challenge to be addressed. Due to this, the traditional worst-case methodology of design is no more effective as process variations require more design margins. To deal with this problem, the prediction of parameter variations can play a vital role in manufacturability of silicon devices [1,2,3]. Lower technology nodes are setting a trend of lowering supply-voltage and tremendous increase in clock frequency. These changes of voltage and temperature variations make the design more and more tedious. To achieve a robust design along with above discussed constraints, designers are focusing on Design for Manufacturability (DFM), which is a key to solve these serious problems. As the worst cases rarely occur, so it is always better for the designers to focus on typical cases, called as typical-case design methodology. In recent time, different typical-case design methodologies are proposed, such as Razor circuit [4][5]
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
