Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

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

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider methods that affect the path delays directly.

Question 2

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

πŸ’‘ Hint: Focus on how timing can extend across clock cycles.
