  • Patent number: 10354046
    Abstract: A method, system, and compute program product use a generalized macro or a generalized macro timing abstract for timing analysis in a specific timing context. The method includes setting up a timer, and determining a divide ratio of each external clock divider of one or more external clock dividers associated with the generalized macro or the generalized macro timing abstract programmatically as a function of another value. The method also includes performing the timing analysis using the divide ratios of the one or more external clock dividers. Obtaining a physical implementation of an integrated circuit is based on the timing analysis.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10318683
    Abstract: A system and method to generate a clock domain-independent abstract of a component in an integrated circuit design. The method includes performing an initial analysis of the component using an initial clock value for each clock domain type, the clock domain types including a functional clock and a test clock, executing an abstractor to obtain a reduced order model of the initial analysis as a clock domain-dependent abstract, and obtaining original constraints associated with one or more circuit elements within the component from the clock domain-dependent abstract. Generating generalized constraints is based on clock domain-dependent constraints among the original constraints, and generating the clock domain-independent abstract is based on the generalized constraints. The method also includes obtaining a physical implementation based on one or more analyses using the clock domain-independent abstract.
