Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a timing path with a slack of -2 ns, what adjustments could you suggest to meet the timing closure?

💡 Hint: Consider methods that affect the path delays directly.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a design, you find one path has a multicycle specification. Design a method to analyze timing considering this condition.

💡 Hint: Focus on how timing can extend across clock cycles.
