Method for evaluating SRAM memory cell and computer readable recording medium which records evaluation program of SRAM memory cell

摘要

A method for evaluating an SRAM memory cell in which the time required for designing the SRAM memory cell can be shortened by evaluating static noise margin in a shortened time. A recording medium which records an evaluation program is also provided. The coordinate conversion which rotates the coordinate axis by 45 degrees is applied to the input/output characteristic data of a first inverter of the SRAM memory cell, and the first proximity curve function is specified by fitting the input/output characteristic data of the first inverter to the proximity curve. The coordinate conversion which rotates the coordinate axis by 45 degrees is applied to the input/output characteristic data of a second inverter of the SRAM memory cell, and the second proximity curve function is specified by fitting the input/output characteristic data of the second inverter to the proximity curve. A third proximity curve function which is a function generated by mirror-inverting the second proximity curve function with respect to the Y axis is specified, and a static noise margin is specified based on an extremal value of a difference curve function which is the difference between the first proximity curve function and the third proximity curve function.
