How Nvidia is Speeding Up Timing Closure of Advanced-Node Application Processors

Designed for applications including tablets, smartphones, gaming cards, and supercomputers, Nvidia's high-performance, advanced-node application processors have stringent power and performance requirements and complex clocking schemes. In this video, Santosh Navale, a physical design engineer at Nvidia, talks about how Cadence® Encounter® Digital Implementation System CCOpt technology has improved concurrent datapath and clock optimization, the timing closure process, and overall chip performance. With CCOpt technology, Nvidia has been able to meet its tough design goals.
