Methods and systems for placement and routing

Techniques for placement of integrated circuit elements include global placement, detailed placement, timing closure, and routing. The integrated circuit is described by a netlist specifying interconnections of morphable devices. The detailed placement uses, for example, Simultaneous Dynamical Integration, wherein the morphable-devices correspond to nodes influenced by forces, including timing forces. The timing forces are derived, for example, from a timing graph; path delay; slack; and drive resistance of the elements. The timing closure uses timing-driven buffering and timing-driven resizing to reduce maximum delay and / or transition time, and / or to fix hold time. Nets having high capacitance and / or fanout, and timing critical nets are preferentially processed. Timing-driven buffering applies buffering solutions to segments of route trees, combines solutions of adjoining segments, and prunes sets of solutions. Timing-driven resizing morphably replaces selected elements with upsized versions thereof.

Touch sensor with force-actuated switched capacitor

This disclosure provides apparatus, systems and methods of fabricating force-sensitive switches. In some implementations, an array of force-sensitive switches and local capacitors of a combined sensor device may be used to connect the local capacitor into associated projected capacitive touch (PCT) detection circuitry. In some implementations, each capacitor may be formed with a thin dielectric layer to achieve a high capacitance increase when the force-sensitive switch is closed, e.g., by the pressing of a stylus or finger. In some implementations, the same PCT detection circuitry can be used to detect changes in mutual capacitance when touched with a finger (touch mode) and changes in sensel capacitance when the force-sensitive switch is depressed (stylus or fingerprint mode).

Supercapacitor with high energy density

The energy content of supercapacitor is determined by its capacitance value and working voltage. To attain a high capacitance and a high voltage, several pieces of electrodes and separators are spirally wound with edge sealing to form a bipolar supercapacitor in cylindrical, oval or square configuration. While the winding operation effectively provides a large surface area for high capacitance, the bipolar packaging instantly imparts a unitary roll a minimum working voltage of 5V on using an organic electrolyte. The bipolar roll is a powerful building block for facilitating the assembly of supercapacitor modules. Using containers with multiple compartments, as many bipolar rolls can be connected in series, in parallel or in a combination of the two connections to fabricate integrated supercapacitors with high energy density as required by applications.

The invention discloses a soft starting circuit for a pulse width modulation DC-DC switch power, comprising a frequency splitting count module, a current threshold module, a current sampling module, a current limiting comparator, a two input or-gate, an oscillator and an RS trigger. The current in a power inductance is sampled when an external switch rectifier is conducted, and the current changes from small to big by stage by limiting the peak value of the current so as to control the step change of the duty ratio, thus leading the output voltage to increase by stage gradually, avoiding surge current in starting procedure and realizing the soft starting function. The invention has the advantages of integrating to the inside of large scale integrated circuit without high capacitance in the outside or a microcontroller to control, limiting the load current directly with good soft starting effect and being suitable for a voltage control mode and a current control mode; the circuit is simple correspondingly by adopting a current gating network; the soft starting time can be regulated automatically according to different loads.

Magnetic dipole antenna structure and method

The spiral sheet antenna allows a small efficient antenna structure that is much smaller than the electromagnetic wavelength. It achieves the small size by introducing a high effective dielectric constant through geometry rather than through a special high dielectric constant material. It typically includes a rectangular cylinder-like shape, with a seam. The edges of the seam can overlap to make a high capacitance, or they can make a high capacitance by simply having the edges of the seam very close to each other. The high capacitance serves the same role as a high dielectric constant material in a conventional compact antenna.
