What Do Timing Constraints Have To Do With Clock Domain Crossing?

As the complexity of designs has scaled, the need for complete and accurate timing constraints (defined typically as Synopsys Design Constraints or SDC) has become extremely critical. High quality ...

Global approach to timing margins and constraint definition for SoC design, Part 2

Margins related to OCV have to be added to the above-described inducing jitter phenomena. It is important to remember that the first phenomena—margins related to OCV– are always impacting both hold ...
