ABSTRACT:
A system for, and method of, reducing the generation of inconsequential violations resulting from timing analyses and an electronic design automation (EDA) tool incorporating the system or the method. In one embodiment, the system includes: (1) a timing violation identifier configured to identify at least some timing violations in a circuit based on a timing analysis, (2) an unsensitizable path identifier configured to identify at least some unsensitizable paths in the circuit and (3) a repair list generator coupled to the timing violation identifier and the unsensitizable path identifier and configured to generate a repair list based on both the at least some timing violations and the at least some unsensitizable paths.
