Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a circuit design with multiple paths, identify which path would be considered the critical path and justify your selection based on delays.

πŸ’‘ Hint: List all paths and calculate delays to find the longest one.

Question 2

Design an optimal strategy for placing components in a chip where power consumption also needs to be minimized, alongside timing requirements.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider both timing and power requirements in your placements.
