Abstract
Systems, software products and methods generate test vectors to analyze cells of electronic gates. A cell of a cell library is electronically selected. Input combinations of stimuli for the cell are determined. One or more input combinations are removed that do not affect maximum and minimum signal propagation timing through the cell. Test vectors for the cell are generated based upon remaining input combinations.
