Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a VLSI circuit with a defined clock period of 5 ns. If the setup time for the flip-flops is 2 ns and the signal propagation delay is 4 ns, calculate the slack for a critical path.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the formula for slack calculation.

Question 2

Discuss how variances in manufacturing can affect setup times and what a designer can do to mitigate these effects.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how designs can adjust for variability.
