Abstract
A method for automatically generating master-slave latch structures is disclosed. A method includes, from another logic synthesis system that invokes a logic synthesis system for generating master-slave latch structures, accessing high level design descriptions of a master-slave latch structure that indicate a fully registered flow control structure design and based on the high level design descriptions, generating a master-slave latch structure design to include at least one master-slave latch pair.
Claims20
In a logic synthesis system for automatically generating master-slave latch structures, a computer implemented method for automatically generating master-slave latch structure designs, the method comprising:
- from another logic synthesis system, that invokes said logic synthesis system for automatically generating master-slave latch structures, accessing high level design descriptions of a master-slave latch structure that indicate a fully registered flow control structure design;
- and
- based on said high level design descriptions, automatically generating a master-slave latch structure design to comprise at least one master-slave latch pair.
In a logic synthesis platform, a computer implemented method for automatically generating a master-slave latch structure design, the method comprising:
- receiving at a first logic synthesis system, high level design descriptions for a master-slave latch structure design that indicate a fully registered flow control structure design;
- invoking from said first logic synthesis system, a second logic synthesis system based on a determination that fully registered flow control is involved;
- accessing from said first logic synthesis system said high level design descriptions;
- and
- based on said high level design descriptions, automatically generating said master-slave latch structure design that comprises at least one master-slave latch pair.
A computer system, comprising:
- memory;
- at least one processer;
- and
- a display component,
- wherein said at least one processer executes, a method for automatically generating a master-slave latch structure design, comprising:
- receiving at a first logic synthesis system, high level design descriptions for said master-slave latch structure design that indicate a fully registered flow control structure design;
- invoking from said first logic synthesis system, a second logic synthesis system based on a determination that fully registered flow control is involved;
- accessing at said second logic synthesis system said high level design descriptions for said master-slave latch structure;
- and
- based on said high level design descriptions, automatically generating said master-slave latch structure design that comprises at least one master-slave latch pair.
