ASAP: a transistor sizing tool for speed, area, and power optimization of static CMOS circuits

Abstract: This paper introduces an automated transistor sizing tool (ASAP) that incorporates accurate gatelevel functio~nal models and can be used for delay, area, and power optimization of CMOS combinational logic circuits in a VLSI design environment. ASAP considers the performailce improvement of VLSI CMOS circuits by optimally sizing the transistors on the first N critical paths. The global picture of the circuit is considered by taking into account the effects that the transi.stor size changes of one path have on t… Show more

“…There are numerous potential logic designs that may give good performance as compared to the basic CMOS logic design [3]. The performance estimation of Full Subtractor is predicated on the basis of area, delay and power consumption [4], [12]. To perform the designing, full custom implementation and simulation of Subtractor at the CMOS circuit level suggests CMOS 45nm technology [5].…”

“…Even in current-generation technology, sub threshold leakage power dissipation is comparable to the dynamic power dissipation, and the fraction of the leakage power will increase significantly in the near future. Today"s microprocessor designs devote a large fraction of the chip area [5] to the memory structures. High-performance onchip caches are a crucial component in the memory hierarchy of modern computing systems.In this technique each NMOS and PMOS transistors in the logic gates is split into two transistors as shown in Fig 1 and …”
