Chip Package Codesign

Optimal codesign of chips and packages leads to higher system performance. The goals of this research area are to develop examples, and determine design methodology, for optimal chip-package codesign. Sub-projects include the following:

  • Spice2Ibis. Development of macromodels, and macromodeling tools for the support of the IBIS I/O CAD standard. For more information on this topic, please refer to www.ece.ncsu.edu/s2ibis
  • Optimal chip-package codesign. Mehtods and examples to improve performance or cost via chip-package codesign.
  • Other CAD toosl for chip-package codesign.
