Abstract
Plasma is a new tool for modeling the timing of chipsets and other system components. Modeling chipsets is in some ways more difficult than modeling processors: the interfaces are more complex and more numerous, the internal queues and buffers are larger, and the traces are much more complicated. We have used Plasma to create a timing model for a modern chipset. The resulting model is fast, flexible, and useful for both design and verification.
