—As process variations become a significant problem in deep sub-micron technology, a shift from deterministic static timing analysis to statistical static timing analysis for hig...
— State of the art statistical timing analysis (STA) tools often yield less accurate results when timing variables become correlated due to global source of variations and path r...

Statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) plays a key role in determining performance of the VLSI circuits implemented in state-of-the-art CMOS technology. A pre-requisite for emp...
Abstract— This paper presents an allocation method of decoupling capacitance that explicitly considers timing. We have found and focused that decap does not necessarily improve a...
