Abstract:

This paper presents a fast and efficient optimization engine with multi-directional, multi-objective algorithms based on a robust transistor sizing approach to improve digital circuit performance. However, such optimization processes are highly simulator-dependent and computationally expensive tasks. There-fore, we propose developing machine learning-based reliable models considering process and operating variations to speed up the optimization procedure by running them on developed Residual Neural Network (ResNN) models instead of running expensive circuit simulations. Results on 22nm Metal Gate High-K digital cells show a reduction in delay and leakage up to 36.7% and 18.8 %, respectively improving computational efficiency by several orders.
