Abstract
A system receives a circuit description and measures of intrinsic delay, intrinsic delay variation, transition time and transition time variation for each stage and determines stage delay variation of each stage. The system receives a circuit description and derate factors and determines an intrinsic delay standard deviation and a correlation coefficient. The system determines a stage delay variation of each stage based on the determined factors. The system receives parameters describing an asymmetric distribution of delay values and generates a normal distribution of delay values. The system receives measures of nominal transition time at an output and input of a wire, and transition time variation at the input of the wire and determines a transition time variation at the output of the wire. The system receives measures of an Elmore delay and a nominal delay of the wire and determines a delay variation at the output of the wire.
