Mvt libraries and resizing

[limitless_21]

Hi,

How can timing optimization be possible by using MVT libraries and Resizing of the cells ? and what are other timing optimization techniques being used during synthesis process. Please elaborate ?

Thanks

What are MVT libraries? Other optimization techniques include using a higher effort, cell sizing and using LVT cells.

MVT libraries contains different set of VT library cells. which will have same feature size, and gate thick ness is varied mainly for leakage power optimization.
synthesis techniques :
generic optimization : logic optimization, boundary optimization, restructuring.
mapped: selecting best candidate cells in the libs. and cell sizing for meeting timing.
incrimapped: timing optimzation
