One of the key factors in the design and development of submicron chip designs is the setting of good physical and timing constraints, no matter what type of design methodology you use. Constraints ...

Naturally, Accellera’s Portable Stimulus Standard (PSS) supports the powerful capabilities of advanced verification techniques that are well-known in the industry today, including object-oriented ...

Signoff of a system on chip (SoC) or IP design has multiple aspects, but often timing closure is the most challenging. Early use of a static timing analysis (STA) tool is clearly important, and such a ...
