考虑多输入转换效应的时序建模
Modeling the effects of multiple-input switching
摘要
Abstract
With the advancement of integrated circuit technology and the increasing operating frequency of circuits,the impact of Multi-ple-Input Switching(MIS)effects on circuit static timing analysis has become more prominent,exacerbated by process variations.Tradi-tional Single-Input Switching(SIS)timing library construction methods struggle to handle violations of hold time and setup time.In re-cent years,several MIS delay models have been proposed to characterize the influence of MIS effects in timing analysis.However,most of these models overlook the impact of input switching time and load on MIS effects,resulting in pessimistic and less accurate predictions.Furthermore,these models individually model each unit without considering the relationship between MIS effects and the transistor-level topology of the unit,leading to decreased accuracy and higher characterization costs.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a novel MIS unit delay prediction framework based on heterogeneous graph neural networks.The transistor-level circuitry of multiple-input units is modeled as a heterogeneous graph,providing a comprehensive and effective representation of factors influencing MIS delay.Multi-ple-input gate MIS effects are trained as a unified model within this framework.In the context of the 16 nm process,the proposed model is validated on multiple-input units.The experiment results indicate that while reducing the modeling cost to 8.8%of the cost required by the ANN model,the model achieves an average error of only 1.19%for units.Compared to the ANN model,the accuracy has im-proved 2.05 times.关键词
