Protecting Chips Against Hold Time Violations Due to Variability

Abstract

In previous chapters, the methodology to measure the value of the race immunity of a FF was presented. Although this data is important by itself, it is more meaningful when put together with the estimate of the clock skew, and the probability of hold time violations is calculated.
