Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a digital circuit where the critical path has a delay of 10ns, discuss how retiming can be applied to improve the design, looking at specific flip-flops that could be moved.
💡 Hint: Analyze where delays accumulate and which elements influence these delays.
Consider a scenario where retiming increased delays on a non-critical path. What analysis would you perform to assess the overall impact on the circuit design?
💡 Hint: Examine both theoretical and practical implications of your retiming changes.
