Static Timing Analysis Practice Questions

 Hello Dear Readers, 

Today I have designed this page for doing exercises regarding STA-related Questions.

Q-1:

The circuit in Fig. 1. is the internal layout of a custom-built chip. The tpd for each gate is listed below it. The delays for the register are all the same and listed in the lower right corner. What is the Maximum Clock Frequency of the below gate-level netlist?

Fig. 1




Q-2:

For each of the following circuits: 
 (i). Calculate the worst-case pin-to-pin combinational delay, clock-to-output delay, and register-to-register delay. 
   (ii). Use this data to find the maximum clock frequency. 
  (iii). Calculate tsu and thd for the external inputs.

Q-3: Are Setup and Hold times of the flip-flop is intrinsic parameters or design parameters.

Q-4: Setup and Hold times of the flip-flop are controllable or not, explain your answer.

Here I will upload more as I will come across any good questions. Thanks for reading

Power Analysis in the VLSI Chip Design

  Hello Dear Readers,   Today in this series of posts I will provide some deep insight into Power Analysis in the VLSI Chip Design. The power analysis flow calculates (estimates of) the active and static leakage power dissipation of the SoC design. This electrical analysis step utilizes the detailed extraction model of the block and global SoC layouts. The active power estimates depend on the availability of switching factors for all signals in the cell netlist. Representative simulation test cases are applied to the netlist model, and the signal value change data are recorded. The output data from the power analysis flow guide the following SoC tape out release assessments:  Total SoC power specification (average and standby leakage): The specification for SoC power is critical for package selection and is used by end customers for thermal analysis of the product enclosure. In addition to the package technology selection, the SoC power dissipation is used to evaluate the die attach ma
