Synthesis and Static Timing Analysis
Optimizing performance and ensuring timing closure with precision.
Synthesis and Static Timing Analysis (STA) are critical stages in the VLSI design flow that ensure your RTL design is efficiently implemented and meets timing requirements.
At MinanoSpace, our synthesis team converts RTL into optimized gate-level netlists, focusing on performance, area, and power efficiency. Concurrently, our STA engineers analyze timing across multiple corners and modes to detect setup/hold violations, clock skew, and critical path issues.
By combining Synthesis and STA, we deliver high-quality, production-ready netlists with verified timing - reducing iterations, avoiding costly re-spins, and accelerating time-to-market.
Convert RTL into gate-level netlists while optimizing for area, power, and timing. Multi-corner and low-power optimizations ensure robust design.
Perform comprehensive setup/hold analysis, clock tree verification, and slack optimization to guarantee timing closure across all PVT corners.
Ensure netlists meet foundry design rules, synthesis constraints, and multi-domain timing requirements for seamless downstream implementation.
Synthesis ensures that RTL code is transformed into efficient, manufacturable netlists, while STA verifies that these netlists operate correctly at their intended frequency. Without proper synthesis and timing verification, designs may face functional errors, timing violations, or excessive power/area overheads, causing delays and higher manufacturing costs.
MinanoSpace integrates both services to deliver designs that are high-performing, power-efficient, and reliable, reducing risk and supporting faster tape-out.
Efficient gate-level mapping and STA analysis ensure maximum operating frequency with minimal slack violations.
Synthesis optimizations combined with low-power-aware timing closure reduce silicon area and dynamic/leakage power.
Verified netlists simplify placement, routing, DFT insertion, and post-layout verification, accelerating the design cycle.
