Static timing analysis — is a method of computing the expected timing of a digital circuit without requiring simulation. High performance integrated circuits have traditionally been characterized by the clock frequency at which they operate.Gauging the ability of a… … Wikipedia
Statistical static timing analysis — Conventional static timing analysis (STA) has been a stock analysis algorithm for the design of digital circuits over the last 30 years. However, in recent years the increased variation in semiconductor devices and interconnect has introduced a… … Wikipedia
Timing closure — is the process by which an FPGA or a VLSI design is modified to meet its timing requirements. Most of the modifications are handled by EDA tools based on directives given by a designer. The term is also used for the goal that is achieved, when… … Wikipedia
timing — One of the essential factors in a internal combustion engine (Fuel, Air, Proper proportion of mixture, compression Timing, spark). When the piston is in the compression stroke both valves must be closed. If one or more is open, the valve timing… … Dictionary of automotive terms
static ignition timing — An obsolete timing procedure carried out by rotating the engine until the timing marks are aligned and then connecting a test lamp or a voltmeter between the negative coil terminal and ground; when the points open, the test lamp lights up or the… … Dictionary of automotive terms
Dynamic timing verification — refers to verifying that an ASIC design is fast enough to run without errors at targeted clock rate. This is accomplished by simulating the design files used to synthesize the Integrated Circuit design. This is in contrast to static timing… … Wikipedia
Ignition timing — in an internal combustion engine is the process of setting the time that a spark will occur in the combustion chamber (during the power stroke) relative to piston position and crankshaft angular velocity. Setting the correct ignition timing is… … Wikipedia
Continuous variable valve timing — offers a unique ability to have independent control of the intake and exhaust valves in an internal combustion engine. For any engine load criteria, the timing of intake and exhaust can be independently programmed [1]. The main variations of… … Wikipedia
Moist static energy — The moist static energy is a thermodynamic variable that describes the state of an air parcel, and is similar to the equivalent potential temperature.[1] The moist static energy is a combination of a parcels kinetic energy due to an air parcel s… … Wikipedia
ignition timing — It is important that the spark coming from the spark plugs ignites the air fuel mixture at the correct moment determined by the manufacturer of the engine. Often this is a few degrees before top dead center (BTDC). Suppose the specs indicate that … Dictionary of automotive terms
