SoC sub-components (IPs) generally come from various sources – internal and external – and with that it has become necessary that designers ensure the RTL is testable. If the RTL has testability ...

All power optimization tools can perform combinational optimization, where there is an opportunity to gate a register clock input, based on the combinational logic that is feeding the register’s data ...

Digital integrated circuits typically use asynchronous set/resets to set the value of memory elements (flip-flops) without depending on any clock pulses. This logic, however, requires special handling ...
