core offset的作用

core_offset在initial floorplan中用于设置core area的大小,确保其为row和site的整数倍。尽管输入的值可能不精确,工具会自动调整。在block设计时,core offset并非越小越好,因为standard cell的衬底比cell本身大,offset过小可能导致与顶层cell的衬底间距问题,甚至影响Pplus和Nplus注入层的spacing要求。

在做initial floorplan时会用到-core_offset选项,用来确定core area的大小,实际core area的长宽是row和site的整数倍,即便给的core offset值不准确,工具也能自动修正。

那么,做block时core offset是不是可以越小越好呢?观察过standard cell的衬底不难发现,衬底(NWELL、PSUB)比我们看到的standard cell要大上一圈,所以block 的core offset太小,放置在顶层时就容易与顶层的standard cell有衬底的spacing问题(一般是boundary cell),如果再小一点,衬底overlap就不会有问题了吗?也不一定,需要注意的base layer还有Pplus和Nplus注入层,他们的spacing要求一般是要更小一些。

 

 

 

 

### SerDes RX Offset Issue Solution and Explanation In high-speed communication systems, the Serializer/Deserializer (SerDes) interface plays a critical role in transmitting data between devices over serial links. One common issue encountered is related to the receive (RX) path timing offsets which can lead to signal integrity problems. Adjustments made through system control settings like `sysctl` commands may not directly address SerDes RX offset issues but are part of broader network tuning efforts[^1]. For instance: ```bash $ sudo sysctl -w net.core.netdev_tstamp_prequeue=0 ``` This command disables timestamping for received packets at an early stage before they enter the main queue processing pipeline. While this does help reduce latency variations that could indirectly affect perceived synchronization, it specifically targets packet handling rather than hardware-level SerDes parameters. For actual SerDes RX offset correction, one typically needs access to specific registers within the device's configuration space where these values reside. These adjustments often involve setting up proper equalization levels, skew compensation, phase alignment, and other low-level configurations depending on the particular implementation used by the silicon vendor. Firmware updates provided by manufacturers sometimes include improved algorithms designed to automatically calibrate such offsets during initialization phases or runtime operations without requiring manual intervention from users. When dealing with SerDes RX offset concerns, consulting detailed datasheets and application notes supplied by chipset providers offers valuable insights into best practices tailored towards resolving these types of challenges effectively.
