Clocking dark matter: optical clocks join the hunt for dark matter. (Courtesy: N Hanacek/NIST) An optical clock has been used to set new constraints on a proposed theory of dark matter. Researchers ...

The intentions of a clock tree synthesis (CTS) tool are to create a balanced clock network with short insertion delay, smaller skews, and as few buffers as possible. Long clock insertion delays will ...

As the complexity of designs has scaled, the need to provide accurate physical constraints like timing, area, power and port locations has become very important. Of these, timing constraints are the ...

As design complexity has scaled upward, the need to provide accurate physical constraints like timing, area, power and port locations have become increasingly important. Of these, Timing Constraints ...

FishTail Design Automation’s solutions enable generation of clock constraints and timing exceptions, formal constraint verification and interactive debug, and checking, mapping, promotion, demotion, ...

As today’s designs become more complex, so too do their constraints. Design functionality typically gets a lot of attention – through code review, functional verification, etc. However, the ...
