Question 1
What is slack analysis used for?
- To confirm operation under functional conditions
- To compare actual delay with required delay
- To improve performance through retiming
💡 Hint: Think about what slack indicates in relation to timing.
Question 2
True or False: Critical path analysis identifies paths that can speed up the design.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Consider the definition of critical paths in terms of performance limitations.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A VLSI circuit has been designed with various signal paths. If path delays are as follows: A (5ns), B (3ns), C (9ns), and D (7ns), identify the critical path and calculate its slack if the required delay is 8ns.
💡 Hint: Examine all paths to find the one with the maximum delay and compare it to the required delay.
Question 2
Given a design with a negative slack due to the critical path exceeding the prescribed limit, suggest a descending order of methods to alleviate the problem.
💡 Hint: Think about the sequence of adjustments that can lead to improved timing.
