Course Description
This course is a detailed exploration of the Tempus™ Timing Signoff Solution which supports distributed processing and enables fastest static timing analysis with full signal integrity (SI) and glitch analysis, statistical variation (SOCV) and multi-mode and multi-corner analysis. In this course, you analyze a design for static timing and signal integrity issues, test parallel processing techniques and run Tempus ECO to analyze the timing issues on large designs at the signoff stage and fix them using the Innovus™ Implementation System.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Identify timing analysis data requirements and import single corner designs, multi-mode multi-corner (MMMC) designs, and multi-supply voltage (MSV) designs
- Identify and apply timing debug techniques using the Global Timing Debug interface
- Analyze a design for timing combined with signal integrity (SI)
- Run parallel processing techniques like distributed MMMC and Distributed Static Timing Analysis (DSTA)
- Run Tempus ECO analysis and timing closure flow between the Innovus Implementation and Tempus Signoff tools

"With this training we are able to improve our already existing tempus script a lot. Very good explanations and examples. I could follow and learn even if it's not an everyday topic for me. Perfect organization of the training."
Thomas Fina, NXP Semiconductors
"Good course showing Tempus improvements."
Kevin Doherty, INSIDE Secure
“Good experience, have learnt many things. Good course, quite intensive; professional trainer with good knowledge of background and adjacent topics”
Leonid Yanovich, X-FAB Semiconductor Foundries
"I have got a very positive impression of the training. Very positive atmosphere with enough time for questions. The training came right on time as we are starting to work with Tempus ECO in the project."
