Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A mixed-signal design faces various timing issues during co-simulation, causing glitches. Propose a systematic method to identify and resolve these issues using the co-simulation environment.
💡 Hint: Consider both digital and analog elements and how they influence each other.
During the design of a new SoC, you find that the analog components are consuming too much power in simulation. Design a plan to optimize power consumption while maintaining performance.
💡 Hint: Think about how different parts of the SoC can operate at individual power levels.
