    摘要: In one embodiment, the invention is a method and apparatus for performing statistical timing analysis with non-separable statistical and deterministic variations. One embodiment of a method for performing timing analysis of an integrated circuit chip includes computing delays and slews of chip gates and wires, wherein the delays and slews depend on at least a first process parameter that is deterministic and corner-based and a second process parameter that is statistical and non-separable with the first process parameter, and performing a single timing run using the timing quantity, wherein the single timing run produces arrival times, required arrival times, and timing slacks at outputs, latches, and circuit nodes of the integrated circuit chip. The computed arrival times, required arrival times, and timing slacks can be projected to a corner value of deterministic variations in order to obtain a statistical model of the delays and stews at the corresponding corner.

    摘要: A method is provided for memory conservation in statistical static timing analysis. A timing graph is created with a timing run in a statistical static timing analysis program. A plurality of nodes in the timing graph that are candidates for a partial store and constraint points are identified. Timing data is persistently stored at constraint points. The persistent timing data is retrieved from the constraint points and used to calculate intermediate timing data at the plurality of nodes during timing analysis.
