Optimization User Guide 2021 ~repack~ — Synopsys Timing Constraints And
: set_input_delay and set_output_delay specify timing requirements at the block boundaries relative to a clock edge.
The 2021 guide emphasizes PrimeTime as the industry "golden" signoff tool. synopsys timing constraints and optimization user guide 2021
Modern designs have multiple functional modes (e.g., Test Mode, Sleep Mode, Functional Mode). The guide explains how to define scenarios and use the set_scenario_status command (in PrimeTime) or set_mode to analyze timing across different operational contexts without generating false violations. synopsys timing constraints and optimization user guide 2021
Here is a step-by-step solution to the example use case: synopsys timing constraints and optimization user guide 2021
