Abstract

© 1991 IEEE. The authors have developed a computer simulator called 'NCHIPSIM' which can be used to simulate with a microcomputer the performance indicators of an integrated circuit microprocessor chip based on silicon NMOS technology. In addition to predicting the various chip performance indicators such as its size, power consumption, maximum clock frequency, computational capacity, functional throughput and the fabrication yield for a chip with given technology parameters, the simulator can also be used to simulate the dependence of any of the performance indicators based on the technology feature size as well as on the integration level of the chip.
