There are several ways to incrementally increase performance or reduce the area (utilization) of Altera devices using the Synplify Pro tool from Synplicity. This paper describes four preferred ways to ...

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 ...

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 ...

We are dealing with designs integrating many features and working with cutting-edge process technologies. Design methodologies and the design and process complexities can be overwhelming. To leverage ...
