In this paper, an alternative approach for performing the pre-characterization of CMOS digital gates is proposed. This method aims to eliminate the use of circuit simulators like HSPICE during the cell pre-characterization in order to accelerate it. This procedure is necessary for the operation of technology models such as CCS, NLDM and NLPM. This is achieved by employing an analytical inverter...
