Inhaltsangabe

The Art of Timing Closure is written using a hands-on approach to describe advanced concepts and techniques using Multi-Mode Multi-Corner (MMMC) for an advanced ASIC design implementation. It focuses on the physical design, Static Timing Analysis (STA), formal and physical verification.

The scripts in this book are based on Cadence® Encounter System™. However, if the reader uses a different EDA tool, that tool’s commands are similar to those shown in this book.

The topics covered are as follows:

• Data Structures
• Multi-Mode Multi-Corner Analysis
• Design Constraints
• Floorplan and Timing
• Placement and Timing
• Clock Tree Synthesis
• Final Route and Timing
• Design Signoff

Rather than go into great technical depth, the author emphasizes short, clear descriptions which are implemented by references to authoritative manuscripts. It is the goal of this book to capture the essenceof physical design and timing analysis at each stage of the physical design, and to show the reader that physical design and timing analysis engineering should be viewed as a single area of expertise.

This book is intended for anyone who is involved in ASIC design implementation -- starting from physical design to final design signoff. Target audiences for this book are practicing ASIC design implementation engineers and students undertaking advanced courses in ASIC design.

 

 

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Khosrow Golshan was Division Director at Conexant System Inc. and Technical Director at Synaptics Inc. while managing and directing worldwide ASIC design implementation and standard cell and I/O library development for various silicon process nodes. Prior to that he was Group Technical Staff at Texas Instrument’s R&D and Process Development Laboratory  responsible for processing silicon test-chip design and digital/mixed-signal ASIC development. He has over twenty years’ experience in ASIC design implementation methodology, flow development, and digital ASIC libraries design.

He is the author of Physical Design Essentials―An ASIC Design Implementation Perspective. In addition, he has published many technical articles and has held several US patents.

The author has earned advanced degrees in the areas of Electrical Engineering(West Coast University, Los Angeles, CA. Engineering Dept.), Applied Mathematics(Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX. MathematicsDept.) and a Bachelor of Science in Electronic Engineering(DeVry University, Dallas, TX. Engineering Dept.). He is also an IEEE life member.

• Provides readers with a hands-on, step-by-step approach to solving physical design and timing closure problems faced in designing for today’s advanced technology nodes;
• Helps ASIC designers to be conversant with all aspects of ASIC design implementation stages including advance node device processes and libraries, place-and-route and verification;
• Enables improvement of so called “RTL-to-GDS” cycle time, by incorporating Multiple Mode Multiple Corner (MMMC) timing closure techniques in every step of physical design.
