The second clock signal is added in step 33, and first leading edge position of the second clock signal, which can guarantee, makes institute The data output end for stating the 2nd SRAM exports the value of the data input signal;
The third clock signal is added in step 34, is arranged the first of the third clock signal using the method for Step wise approximation A leading edge position makes first leading edge position of the third clock signal so that the data output signal is cut can guarantee Be changed to first rising edge for making the third clock signal under conditions of the value of the data input signal and it is described second when Time difference between first rising edge of clock signal is minimum, and the minimum time difference is taken to be delayed for the 2nd SRAM;
Step 4: identical with the structure of the 2nd SRAM using the first SRAM and make the first SRAM delay and described 2nd SRAM be delayed identical feature by the first SRAM delay and the IP address settling time and subtract described second SRAM is delayed to obtain the IP address settling time.
6. the measurement method of the IP address settling time of SRAM as claimed in claim 5, it is characterised in that:The data input Signal is connected to the data input pin of the 2nd SRAM by combinational logic circuit.
7. the measurement method of the IP address settling time of SRAM as claimed in claim 5, it is characterised in that:Described address inputs Signal is connected to the data input pin and address input end of the first SRAM by combinational logic circuit.
8. the measurement method of the IP address settling time of SRAM as claimed in claim 5, it is characterised in that:It is described on domain First SRAM and the 2nd SRAM is close to placement.
