Gradient AOCV methodology enabling graph-based timing closure with AOCV timing models
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing semiconductor circuits seeks timing closure on a preliminarily select, placed and routed set of cells using a delay for each cell as derated by a derate value obtained from a timing model table having a derate value corresponding to a circuit path depth in the netlist. The derate value for a predetermined number of circuit path depths below k are identical. The derate values are monotonically decreasing for increasing circuit depths in a range between 1.0 and 1.5. Separate timing model tables with differing identical values can be employed for standard and clock tree cells.
