| Description: | Azuro's PowerCentric solution delivers a complete multi-objective clock implementation capability to the designer, slotting seamlessly into the design flow as a complete replacement for CTS and post-CTS optimization. Unlike traditional CTS solutions, PowerCentric directly considers the impact of clock tree buffering and clock gating on power, congestion, and setup and hold timing across multiple modes and corners. It can completely restructure the clock tree in a design, delivering a routable, aggressively gated, extremely low buffer count clock tree which meets setup and hold timing across multiple modes and corners in the presence of OCV derates. Reduced power * Significantly less clock tree buffer and wire capacitance * Additional clock gating above and below RTL clock gating * True optimization for lowest cap x freq not just lowest cap Improved variability management * Control clock skew concurrently across multiple corners * Concurrent multi-corner hold fixing * Concurrent multi-corner aware useful skew Enhanced timing closure * Timing aware clock gate hierarchy restructuring * Integrated timing optimization for clock gate enable logic * Multi-stage useful skew for setup and hold with OCV derates Increased productivity * Reduced flow iterations between CTS and post-CTS optimization * Eliminate the need for complex clock tree configuration scripts * Understand complex clock structures quickly with unique GUI Timing Analysis * Built-in static timing engine with full SDC support * Excellent correlation with 3rd party sign-off tools * Setup and hold timing analysis * OCV derates and CPPR Power Analysis * Full chip dynamic and leakage power reporting * VCD, SAIF, TCF import * Fully vectorless statistical average-case activity estimation Variability Analysis * Concurrent multi-mode timing analysis* * Concurrent multi-corner timing analysis* * Concurrent multi-mode power analysis * Full MSV support with CPF/UPF roadmap* Placement and logic optimization * Congestion and timing aware global placement and legalization * Cell sizing and logic re-structuring * High fanout net synthesis * Multi-corner hold fix buffer insertion* Global routing * Advanced statistical track and metal layer assignment * Wire caps estimated based on 3D field solver * Supports shielding, variable spacing, and load-based routing rules Clock tree balancing * Global skew and useful skew** modes * Complex clock tree routing rule support * Automatic balancing of complex muxed-clock configurations * Concurrent multi-corner skew minimization* * Clock tree balancing between voltage islands* Additional gate level clock gate enable synthesis*** * Above and beyond front-end clock gating * Placement, timing, congestion, and activity aware Powerful GUI with advanced synthesis capabilites * Topological and physical clock tree views * Full cross-probing capabilites between all views * Fully Tcl scriptable design environment and data model Easy integration with mainstream EDA design flows * Flat and hierarchical netlist import and export * Compatible with formal equivalence checkers and design-for-test tools |
