Non-linear operating point statistical analysis for local variations in logic timing at low voltage

For CMOS feature size of 65 nm and below, local (or intra-die or within-die) variations in transistor Vt contribute stochastic variation in logic delay that is a large percentage of the nominal delay. Moreover, when circuits are operated at low voltage (Vdd ¿ 0.5 V), the standard deviation of gate...
