Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for generating extracted timing model files, such as macro library files, are disclosed. A user interface or data template is provided to an engineer that allows for the population of data within particular fields related to timing characteristics of an IP block, cell or core. Various types of data and fields may be provided into the user interface or data template. The location of relevant files, such as a cell or core netlist, may be provided within the template. Additionally, one or more modes may be selected by the user to define the manner in which the ETM file(s) are to be generated. An ETM file is automatically generated using the information provided in the data template.

Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for generating and validating extracted timing model files, such as macro library files, are disclosed. A user interface or data template is provided to an engineer that allows for the population of data within particular fields related to timing characteristics of an IP block, cell or core. An extracted timing model file is generated and a validation procedure is performed. This validation procedure may include comparing the information with the file to a test bench have a plurality of test points. In particular, data provided by the engineer is checked against multiple criteria to ensure that this data is valid and/or falls within an appropriate value range constraints. After the validation procedure has completed, the engineer is provided a summary of the validation results.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for selectively voltage-energizing adjacent lines in a planar plasma display panel having a plurality of orthogonal gas-filled channels relative to said adjacent lines, and wherein a display is created by the selective gaseous ignition of regions in the channels between lines, ignition regions may be shifted reliably according to the teachings of the invention.

Abstract: Apparatus for housing the electronic components, keyboard and display screen for a portable communications terminal wherein the terminal is completely self-contained, and the apparatus may be closed into a case for carrying and opened into a plurality of operable positions, having power and heat dissipation features for safe operation in any of these positions. The heat dissipation system includes air circulation channels for conveying air flow over all internal components from a single source of air.
