摘要: A physical information database (20) is utilized as an interface between a datapath cell library (22) and number of electronic design automation tools, such synthesis tool (24), chip estimator (30), HDL generation (28), compilation (26). The includes global parameters applicable to every in the local defining attributes that are associated with individual cells library. standard format allowing uniform access by tools.
