| Abstract | As VLSI technology shrinks to fewer tracks per standard cell, e.g., from 10-track to 7.5-track libraries (and lesser for 7nm), there has been a rapid increase in the usage of multiple-row cells like two- and three-row flip-flops, buffers, etc., for design closure. Additionally, the usage of multi-bit flip-flops or flop trays to save power creates large cells that further complicate critical design tasks, such as placement. Detailed placement happens to be a key optimization transform, which is repeatedly invoked during the design closure flow to improve design parameters, such as, wirelength, timing, and local wiring congestion. Advanced node designs, with hundreds of thousands of multiple-row cells, require a paradigm change for this critical design closure transform. The traditional approach of fixing multiple-row cells during detailed placement and only optimizing the locations of single-row standard cells can no longer obtain appreciable quality of results. It is imperative to have new techniques that can simultaneously optimize both multiple- and single-row high cell locations during detailed placement. In this paper, we propose a new density-aware detailed placer for heterogeneous-sized netlists. Our approach consists of a chain move scheme that generalizes the movement of heterogeneous-sized cells as well as a nested dynamic programming based approach for wirelength and density optimization. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of these techniques in wirelength minimization and density smoothing compared with the most recent detailed placer for designs with heterogeneous-sized cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
