A VLSI integrated circuit is the most significant part of electronic systems such as personal computer or workstation, digital camera, cell phone or a portable computing device, and automobile. So development within the field of electronic space depends on the design planning of VLSI integrated circuit. Circuit partitioning is most important step in VLSI physical design process. Many heuristic partitioning algorithms are proposed for this problem. The first heuristic algorithm for hypergraph partitioning in the domain of VLSI is FM algorithm. In this paper, I have proposed three variations of FM algorithm by utilizing pair insightful swapping strategies. I have played out a relative investigation of FM and my proposed algorithms utilizing two datasets for example ISPD98 and ISPD99. Test results demonstrate that my proposed calculations outflank the FM algorithm.

Abstract The generational scaling of CMOS device geometries, as predicted by Moore's law, has significantly outpaced advances in CMOS package and power electronics technology. The conduction of power to a high-performance integrated circuit (IC) die typically requires close to 50% of package and IC I/O and is increasing with trends towards lower supply voltages and higher power density that occur in advanced CMOS nodes. The disparity in scaling of logic, package, and I/O technology has created a significant bottleneck that has become a dominant constraint on computational performance. By performing power conversion and voltage regulation in-package, this limitation can be mitigated. Integration of thin-film ferromagnetic inductors with CMOS technology enables single-chip power converters to be co-packaged with processors, high bandwidth memory (HBM), and/or other modules. This paper highlights the advantages of fully integrated package voltage regulators (PVRs), which include: reducing package I/O allocated for power, eliminating the need for upstream power-conversion stages, and improving transient response. These benefits substantially reduce the size, weight, and power of modern electronic systems.

This paper proposes a novel design of application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) which is capable of connecting sensor network and other electronic systems to the Internet. The transfer of data between different networks and internet of things (IoT) platform is controlled by IoT platform with the help of instruction sent to ASIC. ASIC will act as serial peripheral interface (SPI) master to all connected networks and data will be transferred serially between them. The different ASIC modules are SPI module, control module, memory module and data/instruction decoder with additional modules built-in self-test (BIST) and direct memory access (DMA). The proposed ASIC will consume less power as compared to conventional microcontroller/microprocessor due to the fact that it is designed for IoT applications. It is described in VHDL at RTL level and simulation is done on the Vivado 2016.2.

Floor planning is an important problem in very large scale integrated-circuit (VLSI) design automation domain as it evaluates the performance, size, yield and reliability of ICs. Due to rapid increase in number of components on a chip, floor planning has gained its importance further in determining the quality of the design achieved. In this paper we have devised an approach for placement of modules in a given area with bounding constraints in terms of minimum placement area imposed. We have used Modified Genetic Algorithm (MGA) technique for determining and obtaining an optimal placement using an iterative approach.

The progressive miniaturization of electronics is familiar to everyone; computing power that used to occupy a room can now be put onto a single integrated circuit. Miniaturization is admirable when size is not relevent to the electronic function, but there are plenty of devices in which a large physical size is essential. Many of these concern information technology, examples being the computer display, printer, and fax machine. Communication with the electronic world is primarily visual and operates at a large format typified by a document. In this rapidly advancing field, we are eagerly awaiting desktop interactive display surfaces that can input as well as display information, document readers, truly portable computers, electronic vision and—the oldest dream of all—the television that hangs on the wall. Realization of these hopes requires a set of technologies that permit bigger rather than smaller electronic systems, and amorphous silicon is helping to make this happen.
