Abstract

A method of estimating delay which includes configuring a first signal path and second signal path such that the first signal path is a victim signal path and the second signal path is an aggressor signal path, calculating Miller factors between the victim signal path and the aggressor signal path for a plurality of edge combinations between a victim signal edge and an aggressor signal edge, and using the Miller factors to perform a timing analysis.
