Static Timing Analysis (STA) is a key factor to validate while manufacturing a chip, where each design must go for setup and hold validation. In today’s era, technology nodes are shrinking and ...

Designers are using every design trick to reduce power in a 3G chip design. But, while cutting power, these tricks can create static timing analysis problems. Here's a look at how designers can close ...

As the electronic design industry continues to push the limits of Moore's Law, a paradigm shift in timing analysis must be considered. The major reason for this is overly pessimistic timing analysis, ...

Static timing analysis is a technique of computing of cell delay and interconnect delay in design (known as path delay) and comparing it against constrain (timing specific) set in SDC file. This paper ...
