Q:

Suppose you have a computional circuit between two registers driven by a clock. What will you do if the delay of the combinational circuit is greater than your clock signal?

Answer

Use the concept of register-retiming.


divide the totla combinatorial delay in two segments such that individually the delay is less the clock period.


this can be done by inserting a flip-flop in the combinational path.


e.g.,


clock period --- 5 ns


total cominational delay ---- 7


then divide the 7ns path in two path of 4 or 3 (best resutls are obtained if delays are  same for both path i.e 3.5ns) by inserting a flip-flop in between.
