Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given an HDL code snippet for a simple process, interpret the corresponding gate-level netlist and explain each component's function.

💡 Hint: Break down each part into inputs, operations, and expected outputs.

Question 2

Analyze a provided netlist and identify any potential mismatches with the expected behavior from the design code. Discuss how these could affect circuit performance.

💡 Hint: Look for logical inconsistencies based on the operations defined in the HDL.
