The Tempus Timing Signoff Solution for SoC design is said to yield up to an order of magnitude faster performance than traditional timing analysis solutions. The tools uses a massively distributed parallel timing engine which can scale to hundreds of CPUs.
The software also has a path-based analysis engine that leverages multi-core processing to reduce pessimism. With its performance advantage, the Tempus Timing Signoff Solution enables broader use of path-based analysis than other solutions. It provides multi-mode, multi-corner (MMMC) analysis and physically-aware timing closure and can handle designs containing hundreds of millions of cell instances without compromising accuracy.
