Hello Dear Readers, Today in this post I will provide some techniques for timing optimization in ASIC Design. Timing Optimization Techniques are as follows: 1. Mapping: Mapping converts primitive logic cells found in a netlist to technology-specific logic gates found in the library on the timing critical paths. 2. Unmapping: Unmapping converts the technology-specific logic gates in the netlist to primitive logic gates on the timing critical paths. 3. Pin Swapping : Pin swapping optimization examines the slacks on the inputs of the gates on the worst timing paths and optimizes the timing by swapping nets attached to the input pins, so the net with the least amount of slack is put on the fastest path through the gate without changing the function of the logic. 4. Buffering: Buffers are inserted in the design to drive a load that is too large for a logic cell to efficiently drive. If the net is too long then the net is broken and buffers are inserted to improve the transition which wi
