Abstract: A system and method for repairing crosstalk delays are disclosed herein. By modeling the change in effective capacitance, one may determine the delay attributable to crosstalk, and upsize cells in the failing net according to a mathematical formula in order to counter the delay.

Abstract: A system architecture including a co-processor and a memory switch resource is disclosed. The memory switch includes multiple memory blocks and switch circuitry for selectably coupling processing units of the co-processor, and also a bus slave circuit coupled to a system bus of the system, to selected ones of the memory blocks. The memory switch may be constructed as an array of multiplexers, controlled by control logic of the memory switch in response to the contents of a control register. The various processing units of the co-processor are each able to directly access one of the memory blocks, as controlled by the switch circuitry. Following processing of a block of data by one of the processing units, the memory switch associates the memory blocks with other functional units, thus moving data from one functional unit to another without requiring reading and rewriting of the data.
