FLIP-FLOP LIBRARY DEVELOPMENT FOR HIGH FREQUENCY DESIGNS BUILT IN AN ASIC FLOW

摘要

A method, computer program storage device and system are provided for determination and selection of optimized circuit components. The method includes performing a timing analysis on at least a portion of an electronic circuit and determining a path in the at least a portion of an electronic circuit, where the path comprises at least one storage element and an operational attribute associated with the path. The method also includes determining an optimized storage element adapted to utilize the operational attribute. The system includes a processing device and at least one of a synthesis tool, a timing tool or a place and route tool communicatively connected to the processing device. The synthesis tool, the timing tool and the place and route tool are adapted to process or analyze an electrical circuit. The system also includes a gate library communicatively connected to the at least one of a synthesis tool, a timing tool and a place r route tool, as well as a substitution unit communicatively connected to at least one of the at least one of a synthesis tool, a timing tool or a place and route tool or the gate library. The substitution unit is adapted to substitute an optimized storage element for a storage element in the electrical circuit.
