January 11, 2007[Technology Report] Dealing With Shades Of Gray
The phrase "knowledge is power" applies particularly when the semiconductor industry grapples with comprehending the impact of variability and improving parametric yields. Statistical static timing analysis, viewed as the panacea for parametric yield issues, is still evolving. That's because it lacks availability of adequate information and a robust model for the process, devices, and libraries. In addition, designers don't know what action to take based on a distribution. Designers,...
