Sprinkler Buddy “Low Cost Irrigation Management For Everyone ! ” Presentation #8: “Testing/Finalization of all Modules and Global Placement” 3/26/2007 Team M3 Kartik Murthy Panchalam Ramanujan Sasidhar Uppuluri Devesh Nema Kalyan Kommineni Design Manager: Bowei Gai
CurrentStatus • Determine Project • Develop Project Specifications • Plan Architectural Design • Determination of all components in design • Detailed logical flowchart • Design a Floor Plan • Create Structural Verilog • Make Transistor Level Schematic • Layout • (~85% done..all modules LVS with only global left) • Testing (Extraction, LVS, and Analog Sim.) • (main modules verified)
Transistor Count … Total: 30,817
Updated Design Size • 330um x 335 um • ~ 1 : 1.01 aspect ratio • .11 mm^2 area • .28 Density
Layout: Progress • All Big Modules LVS • Global Wiring still has to be finished • Control Logic locations estimated and placed • Needs wiring • Extracted Simulations Run on Major Blocks
Layout : 60-20 MUX Density: .35transistors/um2
Layout : ROMs ROM The decoder and ROM didn’t match at all… Decoder
Layout : ROMs Changed Busses from M 1/2 to 3/4 Moved ROM under Bus
Layout : Shifter Density: .35transistors/um2
Layout : FP Add SIG Unit Inputs Density: .36transistors/um2 Outputs
Layout : FP Add Exponent Unit Inputs Density: .34transistors/um2 Outputs
Layout : FP Adder FSM Shaped to “Fill Gaps”
Layout : FP Adder Inputs Density: .28transistors/um2 Outputs
Layout : Floating Point Multiply Inputs Outputs Density: .34transistors/um2
Layout : Entire Chip Density: .28transistors/um2
Simulations : Extracted RC Mult Multiplier Output Clean Input Input Through Min Sized Inv 1.175ns propagation delay
Simulations : Extracted RC Shifter Input Through Min Size Inv Clean Shift Signal Output from Shifter Output from Shifter 340ps propagation delay
Design Challenges and Implementation DecisionsFor The Past Week
Problems/Questions • Metal Directionality is lost when we rotate blocks • Possible to ignore this in blocks we don’t route over ? • Especially bad in large blocks (FP Adder) • Even worse to correct
For Next Time • More Layout • Global Routing • Entire Chip Extracted RC Verification
