The Mystery of Monte Carlo Simulation

If you are in VLSI industry, sometime or the other, you must have heard this term “Mont Carlo (MC)”. In this post let us understand the literal meaning of Monte Carlo simulation and its application in circuit design field. Going by…

PMOS is no longer the Culprit

MOS scaling has introduced many undesired effects, known second order ones being channel length modulation, velocity saturation, mobility degradation etc. These are introducing a new set of challenges for the designers. From the performance perspective, supply voltage scaling has reduced…

Why VLSI?

“There is Plenty of Room at the Bottom“ A popular talk delivered by Richard Feynman to American Physical Society at California Institute of Technology in the year of 1959. This talk at that time could foresee the possibility of the…
