METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SELECTING DATA PATH ELEMENTS FOR CLONING |
| 摘要 |
A method and apparatus for selecting data path elements for cloning within an integrated circuit (IC) design is described. The method comprises performing timing analysis of at least one data path within the IC design to determine at least one timing slack value for the at least one data path, calculating at least one annotated delay value for cloning a candidate element within the at least one data path, calculating at least one modified slack value for the at least one data path in accordance with the at least one calculated annotated delay value, and validating the cloning of the candidate element based at least partly on the at least one modified slack value. |

1. A method of selecting data path elements for cloning within an integrated circuit (IC) design, the method comprising:
performing timing analysis of at least one data path within the IC design to determine at least one timing slack value for the at least one data path; calculating at least one annotated delay value for cloning a candidate element within the at least one data path; calculating at least one modified slack value for the at least one data path in accordance with the at least one calculated annotated delay value; and validating the cloning of the candidate element based at least partly on the at least one modified slack value. |
