Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a placement strategy for a hypothetical chip that incorporates all four objectives discussed. Explain how your strategy meets each objective.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think critically about groups of interconnections and how they interact.

Question 2

Analyze a layout of a chip where the timing constraints are not met, and suggest a course of action to address the delay.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look for areas where signals might take longer than expected.
