Advanced Library Format
{{Use dmy dates|date=September 2022}}
Advanced Library Format (ALF), also known as IEEE 1603 or IEC 62265, is an IEEE and IEC standard that describes a data specification language for library elements used in ASIC design applications for integrated circuits. ALF can model behavior, timing, power and noise, hot electron, electromigration, antenna effects, physical abstraction and physical implementation rules of library elements.{{cite press release| title = IEEE Approves Advanced Library Format Standard for Integrated Circuit Design| publisher = The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standards Association| date = 15 October 2003|url=http://standards.ieee.org/announcements/pr_1603app.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031219114217/http://standards.ieee.org/announcements/pr_1603app.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=19 December 2003| access-date =13 June 2007 }}{{cite news|last=Roethig |first=Wolfgang | title=Advanced library format "attacks" advanced design issues|work=EE Times|date=13 January 2003|url=http://www.eetimes.com/story/OEG20030110S0035|access-date =13 June 2007}}
