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






Solution:






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.

Fig. 3

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

Exploring the Role of LEF Files in VLSI Chip Design: A Beginner's Guide

Hello Dear Readers,   Today in this post, I will provide some deep insight into the LEF file role during the VLSI Chip Design process. In VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) design, a LEF file is a file that contains information about the physical geometry of the standard cells used in a circuit. LEF stands for Library Exchange Format. A standard cell is a pre-designed logic cell that contains a specific function, such as a flip-flop or an AND gate. Standard cells are designed to be easily combinable and scalable to create more complex circuits. The physical geometry of each standard cell is defined in the LEF file. The LEF file contains information such as the width, height, and position of the pins and metal layers of each standard cell. It also contains information about the physical design rules that govern the placement of these cells on the chip. LEF files are important in VLSI design because they enable the interoperability of different design tools from different vend...

Best Book for Designing Microarchitecture of Microprocessor Using Verilog HDL

  Hello Dear Readers, Currently, after succeeding in many topics now I starting to provide technical book reviews which were I have completed and still read books always. So let us start today's book review. Book Name:   Computer Principles and Design in Verilog  HDL Description:  Uses Verilog HDL to illustrate computer architecture and microprocessor design, allowing readers to readily simulate and adjust the operation of each design, and thus build industrially relevant skills Introduces the computer principles, computer design, and how to use Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language) to implement the design Provides the skills for designing processor/arithmetic/cpu chips, including the unique application of Verilog HDL material for CPU (central processing unit) implementation Despite the many books on Verilog and computer architecture and microprocessor design, few, if any, use Verilog as a key tool in helping a student to understand these design techniques...
