Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for pre-tabulating sub-networks. This method (1) generates a sub-network that performs a function, (2) generates a parameter based on this function, and (3) stores the sub-network in a storage structure based on the generated parameter. In some embodiments, the generated sub-network has several circuit elements. Also, in some embodiments, the generated sub-network performs a set of two or more functions. Some embodiments store each generated sub-network in an encoded manner. Some embodiments provide a method for producing a circuit description of a design. This method (1) selects a candidate sub-network from the design, (2) identifies an output function performed by the sub-network, (3) based on the identified output function, identifies a replacement sub-network from a storage structure that stores replacement sub-networks, and (4) replaces the selected candidate sub-network with the identified replacement sub-network in certain conditions.

Abstract: A structure for reducing cross-talk in VLSI circuits is disclosed. By filling voltage and ground metal lines in free or unused channels of VLSI chips and connecting them efficiently to the regular power image of the chip, the line to line coupling through vertical layers is reduced almost to zero and in-layer line to line coupling is also drastically reduced.
