worst operating conditions for typical library.

gops
I have 3 different libraries for typical, worst and best conditions. I'm using RTL compiler for synthesis purpose. I have used typical library for synthesiszing and obtained the synthesized netlist. But i need to analyse the same netlist under worst operating conditions. some one please tell me how to do this.

  • I also wanted to add to Bob's reply that normally you synthesize to the same worst timing conditions as you use for P&R. Otherwise you can end up with a far more challenging problem during timing closure. The recommended flow is usually to use worst case libraries during synthesis and best and worst in P&R (since hold fixing needs to be addressed as well) In some of the newer technologies (65nm and less) you may need to do multiple corner since not all best and all worst are on the same corners.
