Path analysis and path timing interact to some extent for complex machines. If the execution time of an instruction depends on the previous instructions, as is the case for both caches and pipelines, ...

Clock path has always been one of the most critical as well as complex components of timing analysis in synchronous design. With increasing complexities in both functionality as well as test ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. The first time I signed off a design for fabrication, I was a physical design lead working for an ASIC vendor. My company had a very ...
