Static Timing Analysis (STA) not only acts as a connecting link between backend and frontend design activities, but more importantly helps in bridging the gap between simulation and silicon. STA is ...

Let's stare this fact in the eye: static timing analysis is grinding to the limits of its effectiveness. In its place, a hybrid timing analysis approach, which combines the efficiency of static ...

To achieve higher quality on today's multimillion-gate designs and high-speed ASICs, structured DFT (design-for-test) methodologies such as scan, at-speed test, scan compression, and BIST (built-in ...

The Mars Rover is one of the most sophisticated systems ever developed in human history. Designed and built by NASA engineers, it involved break-through innovations in mechanical engineering, hardware ...

Static analysis isn’t dead like some have suggested. Has static analysis lost some of it’s luster? Absolutely! Many of the studies would suggest that static analysis tools (commercial and open-source) ...
