Performance analysis of 1D-to-2D array conversion for priority encoders in post-layout design
摘要
This paper presents post-layout analysis of a modified 64-bit Priority Encoder (PE) design optimized for speed and efficiency. Our previous research implemented a scalable 1D-to-2D array conversion technique for PE implementation, demonstrating its effectiveness in 4-bit, 16-bit, and 64-bit designs. Here, we extend this approach by analyzing the post-layout performance of a 1V 64-bit PE fabricated in an 180 nm CMOS process. Compared to a reference design, our post-layout simulations reveal a significant 47.37% improvement in operating frequency. This remarkable enhancement highlights the robustness and efficiency of our proposed PE architecture, making it particularly suitable for high-speed data processing applications.
