This paper analyses the floorplanning methods based on linear programming and presents a linear replacement of the non-linear objective function. It also presents the sub-section linearization method to replace the original nonlinear items in the constraint inequalities. Compared with former floorplanning methods based on linear programming, the solutions of the method in this paper always lie in the feasible region of the original floorplanning problem. Experimental results show that the method in this is competitive.

In this paper, a 4.8 GHz fully integrated low power, low phase noise phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer ready for WLAN application is presented. It is implemented in a 0.18 mum IP6M CMOS process. The chip consumes only 16 mA (including local buffers to the receiver and transmitter) from a 1.8 V supply and occupies an area of 1.85times1.1 mm 2 . From measurements, its in-band phase noise is -55.8 dBc/Hz and out-of-band phase noise is -119 dBc/Hz at 3 MHz offset. With the help of digital controlled capacitor array (DCCA) this frequency synthesizer can lock from 4.2 - 4.82 GHz

As SOC chips develop to higher and higher frequency, the singularity problem in high speed circuits has remarkably challenged the accuracy and computation time of the state-of-the-art circuit simulators. Taking advantage of the local support and multi-resolution properties of wavelets, the singularity problem in high speed circuits can be efficiently handled by wavelet collocation method with adaptive scheme. The last decade has seen the development of wavelet theory for solving ODE/PDE and its applications in simulation of high speed and large scale linear and nonlinear circuits. This survey will review a series of wavelet theories and fast computation techniques in the transient, steady state and noise analysis of nonlinear circuits, and model order reduction and fast simulation of linear interconnect circuits, as well as analog behavioral modeling. Compared with the traditional approaches using global support functions, the wavelet methods can significantly improve the simulation speed and accuracy, and consequently establish a new direction for high speed circuit simulation.

Heel crack is one of the most complicated reliability problems of wire bonding in the power electronic package. In this work, we investigate the effects of solder IR reflow to the heel crack both in experimental and FEA simulation study for the 2-5 mil (diameter) aluminum wire. The results show that the plastic strain at the heel region induced by the wire bonding process, influence of molding process and the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatches between different components in package are the main causes of heel crack happened in IR reflow. With respect to the trend of lead free, the simulation is also processed under the three temperature hierarchies with different peak reflow temperature (220 D, 240 D, 260 D) and wetting time. From von mises stress and related plastic strain distributions, it can been seen that, during the reflow, the heel region of the wire is endured larger stress and plastic strain than other areas, and with the peak reflow temperature and wetting time increasing, the plastic strain also increases about 20%, which is very critical for material fatigue

Dual Form of Reed-Muller(DFRM) expansions are implemented in OR/XNOR logic,which are based on the features of coincidence operation and known as fixed polarity Canonical OR-Coincidence(COC) expansions. An efficient minimization method is proposed to find the best polarity COC expansion for large *** method derives one expansion from another adjacent polarity expansion using gray code,resulting in small space complexity O(M) and time complexity O(2~nM/ogM)(n and M are the number of input variables and the number of on-set COC maxterms).Hence,it makes minimization for large functions practical.

Genetic Algorithm (GA) is a biologically inspired technique and widely used to solve numerous combinational optimization problems. It works on a population of individuals, not just one single solution. As a result, it avoids converging to the local optimum. However, it takes too much CPU time in the late process of GA. On the other hand, in the late process Simulated Annealing (SA) converges faster than GA but it is easily trapped to local optimum. In this letter, a useful method that unifies GA and SA is introduced, which utilizes the advantage of the global search ability of GA and fast convergence of SA. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms GA in terms of CPU time without degradation of performance. It also achieves highly comparable placement cost compared to the state-of-the-art results obtained by Versatile Place and Route (VPR) Tool.
