Homework_5 -- Design, Verification and Installation of a Standard-height Cell
Revised 10/05/07 by D. Bouldin
Homework_2 described the procedure for the design and verification of
a standard-height cell.
The cell must then be characterized to determine all of its
timing delays between
its inputs and outputs. The procedure for characterization is given in these tutorials:
Library Characterization (html)
Cell Characterization (40 pages--pdf)
Next, the abstract view of the cell must be generated:
Layout-Abstract
Abstract Generation (12 pages--pdf)
Then, the databases for the place/route software
and the synthesis tools can be updated.
Write a one-page summary of the three documents above and place it on your protected webpage.
(Only one page total, not three pages.)
