16 Synchronous vs. Asynchronous esign Synchronous esign Flip-flop based (clock based) Easy timing handling FT compliant Asynchronous Latch based Timing ambiguity cause problems Not FT compliant 16
17 Flip-Flop (Clock) Based esign combination logic Poor HL coding of combination logics can produce unintentional latches Avoid using flip-flops with enable input Use positive clock edge trigger for flip-flops for module RTL coding if flip-flops in cell library is triggered at positive clock edge 17
18 Flip-Flop Clock Edge If negative edge triggered flip-flops are required in a design while Cell Library contains positive edge triggered flip-flops, invert the clock phase first and then write RTL codes using positive edge triggered flip-flops to avoid inverters being inserted at clock inputs of each modules during logic synthesis. 18
19 Problem of Latch: timing ambiguity in E E output setup output setup 19
20 Problem of Latch: possible /E race E E E Need to ensure there is enough hold time for after the falling edge of E 20
21 Problem of Latch: FT scan_enable E scan path normal operation path is generally not controllable by due to E => A latch can not be part of a scan chain 21
22 Outline SoC Timing Issues Timing terminologies Synchronous vs. asynchronous design Interfaces and timing closure Clocking issues Reset esign for Testability (FT) SoC Test Plan Scan, ATPG, memory BIST FT design rules 22
23 Interfaces and Timing Closure A proper design of block interfaces makes timing closure a local problem. A major timing issue in deep submicron technology is the wire delay due to wire load capacitance and RC delay can be much larger than intrinsic cell delays. Timing driven APR helps deal with this problem by taking into account the wire load model. Physical synthesis takes a further stride in achieving timing closure by combining synthesis and timing driven placement. 23
24 Macro Interfaces Macro A Macro B Both inputs and outputs should be registered. This gives a full clock cycle to propagate the outputs of one macro to inputs of another. 24
25 Sub-block Interfaces Subblock Macro AA Subblock B Any block that is synthesized as a unit should have its own outputs registered. Any block that is floorplanned as a unit should have its own inputs and outputs registered. 25
26 Example: interface specification 3ns 3ns T on t care Valid on t care 26
27 Example: registered vs. unregistered inputs d 1 + t setup < 3ns? Combination d 2 + t setup < 3ns Combination 27

47 Bypass PLL & Clock Gating For ebugging Clock PLL Test_en Clock Gate_en or Test_en 47
48 Clock Planning Guidelines The system clock generation and control logic should be separate from all function blocks of the system ocument clock domain information - frequencies, PLL - interface timing (input and output) - skew requirement among clocks Use the standard synchronization interface for asynchronous inputs Compensate insertion delays of hard macros Bypass clock gating and PLL in test mode 48

50 Chip Reset Issues Synchronous or Asynchronous? External or Internal Power On Reset? Voltage etector for Power own Reset? Hard Reset and Soft Reset? Each Module Individually Resettable for ebugging Purposes? 50
51 Synchronous Reset Reset N N N Easy to synthesize since reset is treated as a logic signal Reset slightly affect data timing Need at least one active clock edge for reset to take place. This could become a problem at power on 51
52 Asynchronous Reset N N N RN SN RN No clock required during reset period Reset does not affect data timing Like clock, a reset tree is usually required during APR 52
53 Avoid logical signal reset N N RN RN Avoid using a logic signal as a reset signal 53
54 Reset Guideline Asynchronous reset is preferred. Reset must be synchronously deasserted so that all state machine flipflops starts at the same active clock edge. All flip-flops/latches should be reset to a pre-defined state ( 0 or 1 ) to avoid ambiguity voltage output of sequential elements. 54

56 esign For Testability IC testing vs. verification - manufacturing defect vs. functional defect Importance of IC testing -cost of RMA Test phases: - wafer test (Chip Probing), - final test (packaged IC testing) Test principle: - different kinds of blocks require different test strategies - use a test controller at top level to sequence the test of different function blocks 56

60 FT Guidelines - 1 Avoid internally gated clocks or derived clocks Clock Gated clock erived clock 60
61 FT Guidelines - 2 Avoid using latches Controllable E Uncontrollable A latch can not be inserted into a scan chain due to the uncontrollable enable input 61
62 FT Guidelines - 3 Avoid using flip-flops with an enable input (synthesis) E Enable is not controllable 62
63 FT Guidelines - 4 Avoid combinational feedback Race/unstable ATPG is not applicable 63
64 FT Guidelines - 5 Avoid uncontrollable asynchronous signals N RN Uncontrollable 64
65 FT Guidelines - 6 Avoid feeding data path with clocks N RN 65
66 FT Guidelines - 7 Provide test control for uncontrollable signals Clock PLL Clock Test_en Gate_en or Test_en 66
67 Summaries Recommend flip-flop based design. Use Latches only when you know what you are doing. A proper design of block interfaces makes timing closure a local problem. Clock domains require special cares. A global reset signal is recommended. A proper SoC test plan is important to reduce RMA costs. FT rules must be followed to ensure the testability of designs. 67
