A low voltage swing bus analysis method using a static timing analysis (STA)
tool,
which provides simple and accurate timing analysis verification. The low voltage
swing bus analysis method is used in a static timing analysis (STA) tool. The STA
tool receives a design file which executes the timing verification program then
extracts the timing model for each cell, present in a design file during execution
of the timing verification program, and calculates a timing for each node. The
STA tool extracts a timing model for a sense amplifying flip flop, among cells
present in the design file during execution of the timing verification program,
from execution of a subroutine and calculating a timing for each node connected
to the sense amplifying flip flop. The STA tool outputs the calculated timings.
