Abstract

A high-speed timing verification scheme using delay tables is proposed for a large-scaled multiple-valued current-mode (MVCM) circuit. A multi-level input-signal transition in the MVCM circuit is decomposed of binary signal transitions whose behaviors are represented using delay tables as higher abstracted description than transistor-level one. This high-level abstraction makes it possible to greatly improve the timing-verification speed of the MVCM circuit. It is demonstrated that the timing-verification speed for a 32-digit radix-2 signed-digit adder in the proposed method is about 1000-times faster than that in a conventional HSPICE-based approach with maintaining high delay-estimation accuracy.
