Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a data pipeline, which includes a first mousetrap element and a second mousetrap element in a first pipeline stage. Each mousetrap element includes a request latch that, when enabled, allows a request signal to pass from the first pipeline stage to a second pipeline stage following the first pipeline stage in the data pipeline. Each mousetrap element also includes a data latch that, when enabled, allows a data element to pass from the first pipeline stage to the second pipeline stage. Each mousetrap element further includes a latch controller that enables and disables the request and data latches based on a phase signal that alternates between a first value that configures the first mousetrap element to transmit data to the second pipeline stage and a second value that configures the second mousetrap element to transmit data to the second pipeline stage.

Abstract: To facilitate crosstalk analysis for an IC design, a plurality of input vectors are input into a gate-level simulation. In response, the gate-level simulation determines timing windows for all nets within the IC design, may perform aggressor pruning, and may then determine and output aggressor/victim pairs and associated features for the IC design. This gate-level simulation may be accelerated utilizing one or more graphics processor units (GPUs). Additionally, the aggressor/victim pairs and associated features for the IC design are then input into a trained machine learning environment, which outputs predicted delta delays for each of the aggressor/victim pairs. In this way, crosstalk analysis may be performed more accurately and efficiently.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for a pausible bisynchronous FIFO. Data is written synchronously with a first clock signal of a first clock domain to an entry of a dual-port memory array and an increment signal is generated in the first clock domain. The increment signal is determined to transition near an edge of a second dock signal, where the second clock signal is a pausible clock signal. A next edge of the second clock signal of the second clock domain is delayed and the increment signal to the second clock domain and is transmitted.
