Abstract :
An event-driven self-adaptive window technique for processing feedback problem in waveform relaxation based fast timing simulation is presented. A J-K Flip-Flop and several different kinds of counters are extensively tested to compare its performance with other methods. Also, its application in both switch level timing simulation and analog/digital mixed mode simulation is discussed.
