TIMING MATCHING METHOD OF TIMING ANALYZER AND METHOD OF DESIGNING INTEGRATED CIRCUIT USING THE SAME

摘要

A timing-matching method, executed by a timing analyzer, that includes computing a slew or load of a cell, determining whether the slew or load exists in an extrapolation region of a standard cell look-up table, and swapping the cell with a virtual standard cell of a virtual standard cell look-up table when the slew or load exists in the extrapolation region.
