摘要:
An exemplary method for simulating the effect of mismatch in design flows comprises receiving measured data, receiving an original model, extracting a mismatch model based on the measured data and the original model, attaching the mismatch model to the netlist to obtain a modified netlist, and simulating an effect of mismatch based on the modified netlist. In one embodiment, the extracting of a mismatch model includes selecting a set of model parameters, generating a distribution of mismatch values for each of the model parameters, extracting a set of linking coefficients based on said mismatch values, and extracting said mismatch model based on said set of linking coefficients. In another embodiment, the attaching of the mismatch model to the netlist includes determining a number of layers in the netlist, generating a copy of a lower layer in the netlist, the copy including a reference to a mismatch model definition, generating a copy of a higher layer in the netlist, replacing a reference to the lower layer in the higher layer by a reference to the copy of the lower layer, and generating a new model definition.

A system and method of simulating operation of an integrated circuit. First, circuit characteristics of circuit components are measured, and a set of circuit simulation model parameters are generated for each measured circuit component. Then, the operation of predefined circuit primitives is simulated using each of the generated sets of circuit simulation model parameters. The circuit primitives include the measured circuit components. The simulated operations are then analyzed to select ones of the simulated operations that are worst, best and nominal with respect to a specified circuit performance parameter and to extract model parameters corresponding to the worst case, best case and nominal case sets of circuit simulation model parameters from the generated sets of circuit simulation model parameters. Each extracted set of circuit simulation model parameters comprises one of the generated sets of circuit simulation model parameters. Then a target circuit is simulated using each of the worst case, best case and nominal case sets of circuit simulation model parameters so as to generate data representing the target circuits under worst case, best case and nominal case manufacturing conditions.

An approach for simulating hot carrier effects in an integrated circuit (IC) at the circuit level includes generating a hot carrier library of delay data for each cell in the IC, using the hot carrier library data to generate a set of scaled timing data for the IC and using the scaled timing data with a IC performance simulator to simulate the IC operation. The scaled timing data is based upon the cell delay data and time-based switching activity of each cell in the IC.

The present invention presents methods for modeling the high frequency and noise characterization of MOSFETs. The models may be readily implemented as part of a SPICE or other simulation in a design flow. In particular, this invention is capable of providing a sub-circuit representation of a MOSFET that can accurately predicate a MOSFET's low frequency, high frequency, and noise characterizations. An interface is described through which a user may simultaneously optimize all of these characterizations. Further, methods are presented for building models that can predicate the variations in MOSFETs due to manufacturing processes and generate a corresponding corner model.

Improved DLL4 binding proteins are described, including antibodies, CDR-grafted antibodies, human antibodies, and DLL4 binding fragments thereof, proteins that bind DLL4 with high affinity, and DLL4 binding proteins that neutralize DLL4 activity. The DLL4 binding proteins are useful for treating or preventing cancers and tumors and especially for treating or preventing tumor angiogenesis, and/or other angiogenesis-dependent diseases such as ocular neovascularization, or angiogenesis-independent diseases characterized by aberrant DLL4 expression or activity such as autoimmune disorders including multiple sclerosis.
