Challenges in the Hierarchical STA of a Low-Power 3G
Wireless Application Platform

Abstract
In this paper, the authors describe issues encountered during the Static Timing Analysis (STA) of an ultra-low-power 3G-wireless application platform using Synopsys' PrimeTime®. The design is described with an emphasis in the description on the low-power hierarchical aspects of the design. Additionally, the issues encountered with attendant solutions are described, and a summary is provided.
