  • Abstract
    Despite the initial proof of concept being completed almost a decade ago, the production implementations of Logic Mapping have taken significantly longer. This paper presents an update for the SPARCtrade Microprocessors, along with a discussion of some production worthiness metrics and methods applied to overcome issues on these designs. Statistical wafer level results from three current 65 nm products are shown, supplemented by analysis of some interesting packaged units.
