Abstract :
In this paper we describe a new behavioral modeling facility that addresses the special demands imposed by a cell compiler-based design system. We present a flexible parameter mechanism that makes it possible to describe cells whose pin configurations vary according to user-supplied parameter values. We also introduce the PRICE timing model which provides for detailed timing descriptions.
