As the technology advances, flexible TFT technology now has the ability to implement large-scale digital circuits. Currently the most important problem of flexible TFT technology is the change in mobility when the TFT is bent, and thus the circuit timing is changed when the chip is bent. A placement optimization of flexible TFT digital circuits is proposed to reduce the percentage of clock frequency that has to be slowed down in order to avoid setup time violations. Three optimization modes are supported by the proposed technique for the designer to choose based on different package and bending assumption. A standard cell library is characterized using an OTFT model provided by industrial technology research institute in this thesis. Our experimental results show that the percentage of clock frequency that has to be slowed down is reduced by half when the whole chip is flexible and below 4% when part of the chip is fixed to a rigid package. To the author’s knowledge, this is the first placement optimization tool for flexible TFT digital circuits.1761329 bytesapplication/pdfen-US擺位最佳化軟性薄膜電晶體技術數位電路Placement OptimizationFlexible TFT TechnologyDigital Circuits軟性薄膜電晶體數位電路的擺位最佳化Placement Optimization of Flexible TFT Digital Circuitshttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/257085/1/ntu-99-R97943075-1.pdf
