  • Abstract
    Based on the equivalent Elmore delay model, a new delay model that takes inductance and thermal effect into consideration is presented in this paper. The proposed model with high efficiency has closed-form expression. Its solution exhibits high accuracy as compared to the other models. Simulation results show that the error in the propagation delay is less than 10% for RLC tree example.
