An adaptive circuit can perform built-in self-detection of timing variations and accordingly adjust itself to avoid timing violations. Compared with conventional over-design approach, adaptive circuit design is conceptually advantageous in terms of power-efficiency. Although the advantage has been witnessed in numerous previous works including test chips, adaptive design is far from being widely used in practice. A key reason is the lack of corresponding timing verification support. We developed new timing analysis techniques to fill this void. A main challenge is the large runtime complexity due to numerous adaptivity configurations. We propose several pruning and reduction techniques and apply them in conjunction with statistical static t...
