Abstract
A system and method for characterizing a memory instance. Characterizing a memory instance includes obtaining a memory instance comprising a plurality of leaf cells. Each of the plurality of leaf cells comprises components. First channel connected components from the components within each of the plurality of leaf cells are determined, and a first super leaf cell is generated by combining a first two or more leaf cells of the plurality of leaf cells based on the first channel connected components. Further, an updated memory instance is generated based on the first super leaf cell, and a timing model is determined for the updated memory instance.
