Using Timing Constraints For Generating At-Speed Test Patterns

Handling timing exception paths in ATPG tools while creating at-speed patterns has always been a tough and tricky task. It is well understood that at-speed testing is a requirement for modern ...

Reduce TNS/WNS in synthesis with individual path algorithm

RTL Synthesis is the first step that collates IPs, parameters, PRAGMAS, and various collaterals like LEF and design libraries. It works path by path, targeting the worst timing paths first: basically, ...
