فعال کردن طراحی و شبیه سازی نانومعماری موازی

The tool we present is of aid in the design of circuits based on nanotechnologies, here discussed in the specific case of nanowire arrays, as best candidate for massively parallel architectures. It enables the designer to start from a standard High-level Description Languages (HDLs), inherits constraints at physical level and applies them when organizing the physical implementation of the circuit elements and of their connections. It provides a complete simulation environment with two levels of refinement. One for DC analysis using a fast engine based on a simple switch level model. The other for obtaining transient performance based on automatic extraction of circuit parasitics, on detailed device (nanowire-FET) information derived by experiments or by existing accurate models, and on spice-level modeling of the nanoarray. Results about the method used for the design and simulation of circuits based on nanowire-FET and nanoarray will be presented.
