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, ...

As technology nodes shrink down, the supply voltages of CMOS circuits are scaled down too, and because of that, standby leakage current increases, becoming significant. Until recent years, area and ...

There’s an old saying that the first 90% of a task takes 90% of the schedule, and the remaining 10% takes the other 90% of the time. In chip development, design-signoff closure has become one such ...
