Abstract :
This paper describes the implementation of a concurrent methodology for integrated circuit optimization that spans the fabrication process design and circuit design disciplines. Results from this methodology show substantial performance gains as compared to a separate process/circuit optimization and a substantial time savings over an "all-at-once" combined optimization.
