MOMENT-BASED CHARACTERIZATION WAVEFORM FOR STATIC TIMING ANALYSIS

摘要

In one embodiment, the invention is a moment-based characterization waveform for static timing analysis. One embodiment of a method for mapping a timing waveform associated with a gate of an integrated circuit to a characterization waveform includes using a processor to perform steps including: computing one or more moments of the timing waveform and defining the characterization waveform in accordance with the moments.
