CONVERGENCE CENTRIC COVERAGE FOR CLOCK DOMAIN CROSSING (CDC) JITTER IN SIMULATION

Abstract:

A system and method for providing convergence centric coverage for clock domain crossing (CDC) jitter in simulation is described. The method includes, in part, defining one or more design constraints associated with the circuit design, determining at least one group of converging signals associated with the circuit design using the one or more design constraints, applying a multitude of jitters to clock domain crossing (CDC) paths of the at least one group of converging signals, and storing the jitters in a jitter database.
