  • This paper reviews various CAD(Computer-Aided design) or DA(Design Automation) procedures for specification, design and verification of VLSI chips. The growth and widening of engineering achievements and applicational varieties in this revisited field has been truly explosive for the last five years. Recent trends in VLSI/CAD area and their possible implications on the future evolution of DA society are briefly touched upon. The relative importance of chip specification and design capability within the whole Korean electronics infrastructure in the future is explained with several possible suggestions for coping with upcoming difficulties already being seen in this challenging yet promising area.

  • The advent of very large scale integration(VLSI) has had a tremendous impact on the design of fault-tolerant circuits and systems. The increasing density, decreasing power consumption, and decreasing costs of integrated circuits, due in part to VLSI, have made it possible and practical to implement the redundancy approaches used in fault-tolerant computing. The purpose of this paper is to study the many aspects of designing fault-tolerant systems in a VLSI environment. First, we expound upon the opportunities and problemes presented by VLSI technology. Second, we consider in detail the importance of design mistakes, common-mode failures, and transient faults in VLSI. Finally, we examine the techniques available to implement redundancy using VLSI and the problems associated with these techniques.

  • 본 논문에서는 최근의 64비트 마이크로프로세서에 대해서 PLA설계법 및 검사가 쉽고 용이하도록 하는 방법에 대해서 논하였다. VLSI에서 RAM. ROM. PLA를 사용한 설계법이 정착 되어가고 있으며 PLA는 논리설계와 회로변경 및 검사가 용이하기 때문에 성능과 가격이 중요하다. 향후에도 PLA는 VLSI 설계의 기본요소로서 중요한 위치를 점유할 것이다.

  • 근년, 반도체 기술의 급격한 진보에 따라 고기능 논리회로의 VLSI화가 가능하게 되었다. 이에 따라 수치 처리의 고원화, 광대역 화상처리등을 위한 고기능 회로들의 전용 VLSI 칩의 설계가 연구되고 있으며, 여러 종류의 소프트웨어 패키지의 VLSI화가 가능하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 계산기의 회귀분석용 범용 소프트웨어 패키지(BMD)를 하드웨어화하는 설계 수법을 제안하였다. 이것은 종래의 통계 처리를 소프트웨어에만 의존하기 때문에 처리 속도가 저하되는 것을 하드웨어화함으로써 개선하였다. 설계 알고리즘은 통계 수첩의 계산 특징을 살려 본 시스템을 구성한다. 그 결과 하드웨어화에 의하여 소프트웨어 패키지의 복잡성이 제거되고, 고속 처리함으로써 확률을 향상시켰다.

  • The floorplanning problem is an essential design step in VLSI layout design and it is how to place rectangular modules as density as possible. And then, as the DSM advances, the VLSI chip becomes more congested even though more metal layers are used for routing. Usually, a VLSI chip includes several buses. As design increases in complexity, bus routing becomes a heavy task. To ease bus routing and avoid unnecessary iterations in physical design, we need to consider bus planning in early floorplanning stage. In this paper, we propose a floorplanning method for topological constraint consisting of bus constraint and memory constraint. The proposed algorithms based on Genetic Algorithm(GA) is adopted a sequence pair. For selection control, new objective functions are introduced for topological constraint. Studies on floor planning and cell placement have been reported as being applications of GA to the LSI layout problem. However, no studies have ever seen the effect of applying GA in consideration of topological constraint. Experimental results show improvement of bus and memory constraint.

  • This paper addresses Very large-scale integration (VLSI) placement optimization, which is important because of the rapid development of VLSI design technologies. The goal of this study is to develop a hybrid algorithm for VLSI placement. The proposed algorithm includes a sequential combination of a genetic algorithm and an evolutionary algorithm. It is commonly known that local search algorithms, such as random forest, hill climbing, and variable neighborhoods, can be effectively applied to NP-hard problem-solving. They provide improved solutions, which are obtained after a global search. The scientific novelty of this research is based on the development of systems, principles, and methods for creating a hybrid (combined) placement algorithm. The principal difference in the proposed algorithm is that it obtains a set of alternative solutions in parallel and then selects the best one. Nonstandard genetic operators, based on problem knowledge, are used in the proposed algorithm. An investigational study shows an objective-function improvement of 13%. The time complexity of the hybrid placement algorithm is O(N2).

  • 본 논문에서는 VLSI 회로망의 데스트 패턴 생성에 적합한 범용 자동 데스트 패턴 생성기(UATPG)의 설계 및 구현 기법을 기술하고자 한다. UATPG는 기존 ATPG의 용량을 확장하고 CAD 사용자에게 편리한 설계 환경을 제공하는데 초점을 맞추어 구현되었다. 테스트 패턴 생성시에 함수적 게이트의 신호선 논리값확인 및 고장효과전달을 효과적 으로 수행하기 위하여 경험적인 기법을 고안하여 적용하였다. 또한, 테스트 용이화 설계(design for testability)에 사용되는 기억소자(flip-flop)가 의사 입출력으로 이 용되어 VLSI 회로망의 시험성을 한층 높여 주었다. 그 결과, UATPG는 사용의 용이성과 성능면에서 좋은 성과를 보여주었다.
