    Abstract:

    Several full custom EDA techniques were developed during the design of YHFT-DX processor. Hierarchical functional model extraction, which can convert a transistor-level netlist into an equivalent RTL netlist, were developed for the functional verification of full custom circuits. Hybrid timing analysis was researched for the transistor-level timing analysis. 10x run-time improvements were achieved by the multi-thread parallel optimization. A measurement was developed to get delays from the simulation waveforms, which improves the efficiency of simulation results analysis. Two signal integrity verification tools, PNVisual and NoiseSpy, were developed for IR-Drop and noise analysis of full custom circuits. These techniques have been widely used in the design of YHFT-DX, which greatly improves the efficiency and quality of full custom design.
