Library modeling

Abstract

Once a design has been verified, the next step is logic synthesis. Logic synthesis produces a technology-dependent netlist implementation of the design. Such a netlist needs to include instances of cell models. All the cell models for a given target technology are gathered together into a library. This chapter deals with creating cell models for a component library.
