Very good book for the beginners
This is a really good book for the beginners to understand the timing verification in ASIC flow.There are not many books in this area which explain things clearly.Most of them get lost in the syntax and modules of coding. 90% percent of ASIC design is done with synopsys tools and book authors tell more about the tool syntax than why they are there.This book has minimum of tool syntax.It is SIMPLE and that is its greatest quality.Most people who have reviewed the book have given good ratings.The one that is bad must be from an experienced person.This book is not for an expert in this field.

Very useful
A clearly written, concise, and very helpful book.


Rating: 5 out of 5
A "must-have" book for practicing ASIC engineers
The book has detailed information on timing issues of ASICs and FPGAs, such as pre and post layout timing analysis. Several comprehensive examples on timing analysis using different available STA tools makes the book a practical guide for verification engineers. The book also covers some RTL coding examples for timing, however it is made solely for timing verification not a book for learning HDL languages, therefore trying to criticize the programming part of the book as in previous review is irrelevant let alone trying to correct spelling.
