Abstract
An accurate CMOS process independent propagation delay macromodel is presented for inverter and multiple input NAND and NOR gates. A new nonsymmetrical input dependent delay model is shown to improve delay estimation accuracy. CMOS process independence is achieved without the application of recurrent data fitting techniques.
