clock gating 时序问题
设计中有clock gating,用的是库里自带的clock gating cell,该cell前后时钟分别为:clk,gclk,其中有vclk与clk的latency是用set_latency_adjustment_options 相连接的,cts之后报timing出现了clock gating cell之前的一条路径的slack问题很严重(-0.19ns),其他路径正常,并且这条路径上clock network delay 在data required time 和 data arrival time 差别很大(0.18,0.48);求助:出现这样的情况是什么原因引起的,需要怎么去解决,或者是这种带有clock gating的设计在cts或者其他的设计步骤中需要怎么去特别处理?报告如图两图差别为一个用到了-path_type full_clock,一个没用)图挂了,在3L和4L文本贴出报告。

vclk 的 clock network delay 不合理
是的,其他路径的都在0.48左右,唯独这条clock gating cell 前的路径只有0.18,我也是头一次做clock gating的东西,造成这种现象的可能原因,还望小编指点
写错了,应该是vclk,那个clock network delay 在CTS前后 要做调整,一般是与clk的latency相同
有的,用set_latency_adjustment_options 调整过
从report上看,显然不合理,如果你认为调整过的latency是对的话,就调input delay
