Quick Quiz

1:	An IC floorplan: Arranges major blocks on the chip Arranges transistors on the chip Lays out wires on the chip
2:	IC routing tools: Arrange cells on the chip Rout out timing problems Plan the wire paths on the chip
3:	Physical rule checker tools: Check the spacing between wires Check the number of loads a gate can drive Check the netlist against the physical wires
4:	Signal delays are not caused by: Wire length Clocks Noise
5:	Signal integrity tools measure: The honesty of a signal How well signals travel through the wires and gates How fast signals travel
6:	Thermal analysis tools measure: The temperature of the wires The chip sensitivity to heat The temperature all over the chip
7:	Timing closure is when: All delay faults are resolved Successful first ...
