N2 - The method of arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) is used to characterize the delay and subthreshold leakage of commercial 65nm and 28nm standard cell libraries. Delay and subthreshold leakage of a standard cell are modelled as orthogonal polynomial series of process variables. The aPC approach constructs the polynomials using only moments, and the coefficients of the polynomials are determined by minimum least squares, using samples generated by Monte Carlo simulation (MCS). The mean and standard deviation of delay and subthreshold leakage computed using aPC are within 1% of those computed using MCS while the aPC method results in a 25X-40X speed up over MCS.
