Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
If a design has a critical path delay of 5ns and can be optimized to 3ns using retiming, what percentage improvement does that represent?
💡 Hint: Think about how much faster the new delay is compared to the old one.
Question 2
Consider a scenario where block merging saves 10% of area, leading to cost savings. If the original area was 200 mm², what is the new area?
💡 Hint: Figure out 10% of 200 first.
