Static Timing Analysis Method for Inter-prediction Module

In this paper,based on static timing analysis software PrimeTime of Synopsys Company,the static timing analysis method (STA) for ASIC design verification is introduced. Firstly,the basic principles of STA,PT startup file establishment and working condition choice are introduced. Then the inter-prediction module of video decoding system is used to explicate STA analysis method and PT workflow. The static timing analysis report is also given. The report shows that PT tool has high coverage fraction of timing path analysis,and the timing path satisfy the design requirements.
