IEC 61523-2:2002

Applies to CMOS ASIC libraries which contain cell based primitives and memories to be used during the pre-layout design phase of logic simulation, timing verification and logic synthesis.The delay calculation method addressed in this standard consists of 1) estimation of wire capacitance 2 ) Delay calculation method based on tablelook-up. With use of DCL and SDF, this delay calculation method helps the user have a unified timing model for various EDA tools in the pre-layout design phase.
