Timing Analysis

I've been trying to understand Static Timing Analysis (STA) and how it compares to Dynamic Timing Analysis (DTA). STA seems to be about checking every signal path in a circuit and measuring travel times to ensure performance goals are met. How exactly does STA work, and why is it considered more popular than DTA?

Thanks for all your insights! It sounds like STA is favored for its efficiency and ability to catch timing issues early. I appreciate the explanations on how it works and why it’s preferred over DTA. This really helps clarify things for us.
