Static Timing Analysis basics:

STA:
No simulation; no inputs required
Puts worst timing to check timing violations based on paths; pessimistic approach
Fast, thorough

Dynamic Timing Analysis:
Apply vectors to inputs and check violations
Very accurate but very slow.

Different paths:
False paths
Multi Cycle paths
Latch timing borrow

Clocks:
Defining clocks; different ways
Generated clock
Latency: source + network
skew, jitter, uncertainity
