    • A physical synthesis tool for dock optimization with local clock buffer control optimization is provided. The physical synthesis flow consists of delaying the exposure of clock routes until after the clock optimization placement stage. The physical synthesis tool clones first local clock buffers. Then, the physical synthesis tool runs timing analysis on the whole design to compute the impact of this necessarily disruptive step. After cloning local clock buffers, the physical synthesis tool adds an extra optimization step to target the control signals that drive the local clock buffers. This optimization step may includes latch cloning, timing-driven placement, buffer insertion, and repowering. The flow alleviates high-fanout nets and produces significantly better timing going into clock optimization placement. After placement, the physical synthesis tool fixes latches and local clock buffers in place, inserts clock routes, and repowers local clock buffers.
    • 提供了一种用于通过本地时钟缓冲器控制优化进行码头优化的物理综合工具。 物理合成流程包括延迟时钟路由的曝光,直到时钟优化放置阶段为止。 物理综合工具克隆了第一个本地时钟缓冲区。 然后,物理综合工具对整个设计运行时序分析,以计算这一必然破坏性步骤的影响。 在克隆本地时钟缓冲器之后,物理综合工具增加了一个额外的优化步骤来对驱动本地时钟缓冲器的控制信号进行目标。 该优化步骤可以包括锁存克隆,定时驱动放置,缓冲器插入和重新供电。 该流程减轻了高扇出网络,并显着提高了进入时钟优化布局的时间。 放置后,物理综合工具将锁存器和本地时钟缓冲器固定到位,插入时钟路由并释放本地时钟缓冲区。

    • A method, data processing system and computer program product for optimizing the placement of logic gates of a subcircuit in a physical synthesis flow. A Pyramids utility identifies and selects movable gate(s) for timing-driven optimization. A delay pyramid and a required arrival time (RAT) surface are generated for each net in the selected subcircuit. A slack pyramid for each net is generated from the difference between the RAT surface and delay pyramid of each net. The slack pyramids are grown and tested using test points to generate a worst-case slack region based on a plurality of slack pyramids in the selected subcircuit. The worst-case slack region is mapped on a placement region and a set of coordinates representing the optimal locations of the movable element(s) in the placement region are determined and outputted.

    • A timing-driven cloning method iteratively partitions sinks of the net into different sets of clusters and for each set computes a figure of merit for a cloned gate location which optimizes timing based on linear delay, that is, a delay proportional to the distance between the cloned gate location and the sinks. The set having the highest figure of merit is selected as the best solution. The original gate may also be moved to a timing-optimized location. The sinks are advantageously partitioned using boundaries of Voronoi polygons defined by a diamond region surrounding the original gate, or vice versa. The figure of merit may be for example worst slack, a sum of slacks at the sinks in the second cluster, or a linear combination of worst slack and sum of the slacks.

    • A method, data processing system and computer program product for optimizing the placement of logic gates of a subcircuit in a physical synthesis flow. A Rip Up and Move Boxes with Linear Evaluation (RUMBLE) utility identifies movable gate(s) for timing-driven optimization. The RUMBLE utility isolates an original subcircuit corresponding to the movable gate(s) and builds an unbuffered model of the original subcircuit. Notably, a new optimized placement of the movable gate is yielded to optimize the timing (i.e., maximize the minimum slack) of the original subcircuit, while accounting for future interconnect optimizations. The new subcircuit containing the new optimized gate placement and interconnect optimization is evaluated as to whether a timing degradation exists in the new subcircuit. If a timing degradation exists in the new subcircuit, the RUMBLE utility can restore an original subcircuit and a timing state associated with the original subcircuit.
