Abstract

A method and device for determining a delay of a gate driven by a driving gate with different ground or supply voltages. The method includes determining from the supply and ground voltages for the driven gate and its driving gate an adjusted supply voltage value, and applying the adjusted supply voltage value as a single voltage parameter to a pre-characterized delay model for the driven gate. The device is structured to perform the method.
