According to a technique for determining delays through multi-stage datapath elements, estimates of the delays through each stage of the datapath element are computed in accordance with an equation such as: Ds=DbNb+C; where Ds is the estimated stage delay, Db is a delay associated with communication between bits in the stage, Nb is the number of bits in the datapath element, and C is a constant. The estimated stage delays are used to determine positions of pipelining stages in the datapath element. |
