Designing with synchronous clocks avoids metastability issues on clock domain crossings, but it presents its own challenges when multi-cycle and false paths are involved. A multi-cycle path (MCP) ...

A Note from Jim: The stated objective of this story is to introduce you to some notions that may be of imme-diate help to circle track engines operating under rules that allow non-OEM parts. It is ...

All chip designers know that they must take special care to avoid metastability problems when they have multiple, asynchronous clock domains. In contrast, a design in which all clocks are synchronous ...

Natural laminar flow is a known means of reducing aircraft drag and energy consumption, but its practical implementation is difficult on commercial airliners that cruise at transonic speeds and ...
