Timing Analysis Section 2.4.2
Delay Time • Def: Time required for output signal Y to change due to change in input signal X • Up to now, we have assumed this delay time has been 0 seconds. t=0 t=0
Delay Time • In a “real” circuit, it will take tp seconds for Y to change due to X t=0 t=tp tp is known as the propagation delay time
Timing Diagram • We use a timing diagram to graphically represent this delay Horizontal axis = time axis Vertical axis = Logical level axis (Logic One or Logic Zero)
Timing Diagram • We see a change in X at t=0 causes a change in Y at t=tp Horizontal axis = time axis Vertical axis = Logical level axis (Logic One or Logic Zero)
Timing Diagram • We also see a change in X at t=T causes another change in Y at t=T+tp We see that logic circuit F causes a delay of tp seconds in the signal
Simple Example – Not Gate Let tp=2 ns Where ns = nanosecond = 1x10-9 seconds 2ns
Simple Example – 2 Not Gates Let tp=2 ns 4ns 2ns 2ns Total Delay = 2ns + 2ns = 4ns
Simple Example – 2 Not Gates Notes: Time axis is shared among signals Logic levels (1 or 0) are implied, not shown
Simple Example – 2 Not Gates Sometimes dashed vertical lines are added to aid reading diagram 2ns 2ns 2ns 2ns 2ns
Where does this delay come from? Circuit Delay
Circuit Delay • All electrical circuits have intrinsic resistance (R) and capacitance (C). Let’s analyze a simple RC circuit
Circuit Delay – Simple RC Circuit Vin Vout Note:
Circuit Delay – Example Vin Vout Let R=1ohm, C=1F, so that RC=1 second Time Delay is 0.7s or 700 ms for 0.5Vdd Time Delay is 2.3s for 0.9Vdd Time Delay is 4.6s for 0.99 Vdd
Def: tplh tplh = low-to-high propagation delay time This is the time required for the output to rise from 0V to ½ VDD tplh
Def: tphl Tphl = high-to-low propagation delay time This is the time required for the output to fall from Vdd to ½ VDD tphl
Def: tp (propagation delay time) Let’s define tp = propagation delay time as This will be the “average” delay through the circuit
Gate Delay – Simple RC Model Ideal gate with tp=0 delay RC network Tp=tp_not Equivalent model with Gate delay of tp_not Ideal gate with RC network
Gate Delay - Example X 0 25ns 5ns Y tp_not 0 5ns 30ns We indicate tp on the gate
Combinational Logic Delay Longest delay This circuit has multiple delay paths A-Y = 5ns+5ns+5ns=15ns B-Y = 5ns+5ns+5ns+5ns=20ns C-Y = 5ns+5ns+5ns=15ns D-Y = 5ns Shortest delay Longest delay = 20ns Shortest delay = 5ns
Combinational Logic Delay Longest delay We’ll use the longest delay to represent the logic function F. Let’s call it Tcl for time, combinational logic Shortest delay Longest delay = 20ns
Combinational Logic (CL) Cloud Model Tcl=20ns Tcl=20ns
Logic Simulators Used to simulate the output response of a logic circuit.
Logic Simulations • Three primary types • Circuit simulator (e.g. PSPICE) • “Exact” delay for each gate • Most accurate timing analysis • Very slow compared to other types • Functional Simulation (e.g. Quartus ) • Assumes one unit delay for each gate • Very fast compared to other types • Most inaccurate timing analysis • Timing Simulation (e.g. Quartus) • Assumes “average” tp delay for each gate • Not the fastest or slowest timing analysis • Provides “pretty good” timing analysis
