A statistical model for the purpose of logic cell timing analysis in the presence of process variations is presented. A new current-based cell delay model is utilized, which can a...
Formal languages are increasingly used to describe the functional requirements (specifications) of circuits. These requirements are used as a means to communicate design intent an...

We propose a scalable and efficient parameterized block-based statistical static timing analysis algorithm incorporating both Gaussian and non-Gaussian parameter distributions, ca...
Chips manufactured in 90 nm technology have shown large parametric variations, and a worsening trend is predicted. These parametric variations make circuit optimization difficult ...
