Perhaps most important, RTL-to-netlist comparison verifies the synthesis process itself, either finding errors in the netlist or formally proving that no such errors exist. This provides high ...

Physical prototyping and physical synthesis tools, on the other hand, are gate-level netlist based. They are incapable of tracing RTL architecture and coding problems back to the source of the problem ...

This paper presents a digital design flow in order to design high performance differential Emitter Coupled Logic (ECL) circuits efficiently. The proposed flow is similar to the ordinary digital CMOS ...

RTL was represented as functional gates created by the equivalence tool, while the gate-level netlist was displayed accurately by function. These views were specifically of the full cone of logic with ...

Using Synthesis Tool we generate a new gate level netlist using boundary optimization report and new RTL. At the same time we extract the block level netlist of the module in which eco needs to be ...

Construct to specify ELS cells UPF generics to specify isolation/level-shifter source power and sink power Rules to clearly define the connection of power aware cells for non-pg connected netlist This ...

For ASIC chips, the RTL soft core and other RTL associated with the design are synthesized into a gate-level netlist. Based on the netlist, the logic gates are placed and routed and then turned ...

Even worse, at the gate-level of logic in advanced node devices (28 nm or lower), RTL CDC tools cannot easily detect glitches introduced by synthesis or other back-end tools on CDC paths that were ...

Thanks to a fast, built-in synthesis engine, Atrenta's SpyGlass 3.0 predictive-analysis tool detects very complex structural problems in register transfer level (RTL) code that ...

Think Global RTL coding style and how you drive today's synthesis tools affect your results. Take advantage of global RTL optimizations by synthesizing big blocks in top-down fashion instead of ...
