UMC EDA solution to initial statistical timing analysis problem

Taiwan foundries ACCCIM electrical and electronic design automation (EDA) Extreme DA Corp., said the start-up company, the two sides have signed a cooperation agreement, change the recognition design process of IC system on chip technology suitable for the development of less than 90 nm (SoC).

This process is committed to solve some problems in the design of manufacturing (DFM), such as timing and power consumption changes in the prediction and optimization, in order to reduce the uncertainty of design and accelerate the speed of mass production. This process is based on the acceptance of Extreme DA company tools, has been tried on the 90 test process of electronic technology on the Lianhua chip XT.

The key lies in the development of cooperation between the two sides, the 65 nanometer design process including: to collect the specific process change structure design of test data; data extraction, change the front-end and back-end process includes: extracting pure random, random, spatial association of crystal crystal square random, and systematic data modification results; the estimated XT statistical timing compared with the actual measurement of silicon verification. The use of XT statistical extraction and timing tools will enable both customers to be able to verify the use of this unique, with the ability to change the identity of the 65 nanometer technology has been verified.

Mustafa Celik CEO Extreme DA said the company is currently with a number of statistical timing analysis of interest free factory are discussed, and the process of statistical timing data from wafer foundry.
