Abstract
Disclosed approaches for processing a circuit design targeted to a programmable integrated circuit (IC) include inputting the circuit design to a programmed processor. Each path of the circuit design specifies a plurality of circuit elements of the programmable IC. For each circuit element specified in a path of the plurality of paths the processor looks up in a memory a mean delay associated with the circuit element, looks up a sigma factor associated with the circuit element, and looks up a delta factor associated with the circuit element. The processor determines a delay of the path as a function of the mean delay, sigma factor, and delta factor of each circuit element in the path.
