Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Evaluate a given logic circuit diagram showcasing multiple paths. Identify the critical path and justify your choice based on propagation delays.

💡 Hint: Use simulation tools to measure the delays accurately.

Challenge 2 Hard

You are designing a digital circuit but the critical path you identified is too slow for the expected operational frequency. What modifications would you suggest?

💡 Hint: Focus on specific elements within the circuit that can be optimized.
