Physical Synthesis

When it comes to digital design, Physical Synthesis plays a crucial role in optimizing timing, congestion, and power. It acts as the bridge between logic-level design and circuit-level implementation, ensuring that designs transition smoothly into physical form while maintaining performance. To start Physical Synthesis, we need essential inputs such as: At this stage, the design […]

RTL Quality Effect on Synthesis

How High-Quality RTL Impacts Synthesis: A Closer Look In this post, we’re diving into how the quality of your RTL (Register Transfer Level) design directly affects the synthesis process. Think of it this way: the better your RTL, the smoother and more efficient the synthesis will be. When your RTL is written with precision and […]

Types of Synthesis

Types of Synthesis There are basically two types of synthesis: 1. Logical Synthesis 2. Physical Synthesis Logical Synthesis To perform the logical synthesis, we need to have basic inputs like RTL, SDC, UPF and Timing lib. In this type of synthesis, we perform the logical level conversion to circuit level without any physical inputs. Initially […]

Synthesis Overview and Inputs

What is Synthesis? Synthesis comes between the RTL Design & Verification and Physical design steps in VLSI. The meaning of synthesis is the transformation of a level of idea into another. To give an overview, let me clarify few points w.r.t flows before digging into Synthesis. RTL Design is the step where front-end engineers write […]
