Q 4.If you have both IR drop and congestion how will you fix it?
A. a) Spreed macros.
b) Spreed standard cells.
c) Increase strap width.
d) Increase no.of straps.
e) Use proper blockage.

Q 10.What is Electromigration(EM)?
A. When high current density continuously flows through a metal due to the high c
atoms moving with kinetic energy and they transfer the energy to another atoms a
the temperature due to these the metal will damage.

c) Timing reports for setup and hold.
d) Power and area report.
Q 14.What is synthesis?
A. It is a process to convert RTL code into design implementation.
Q 15.which metal layer will be used for clock in 7 metal layer design.why?
A. Metal 4 and 5.because the clock nets will consume 30 to 40% of power in the d
reduce the IR drop we are using low resistance metal.top 6,7 metal layers for pow
and 5,4 for clock nets.
Q 20.What is shielding?
A. Placing ground net in between aggressor and victim nets then voltage discharg
net.This will reduce the cross-talk.

Q 33.Why should we solve setup violations before CTS and hold violations a
A. Setup violations depends on data path while hold violations depends on clock p
clock path is taken as ideal because we don't have skew and transition numbers o
but this information is sufficient to perform setup analysis.Clock is propagated afte
why hold violations are fixed after CTS.
Q 39.During power analysis if you are facing IR drop problem then how did y
A. a) Increase power metal layer width.
b) Go for high metal layer.
c) Spread macros or standard cells.

A. Some times with default routing it is very hard to avoid cross talk,electromigrati
cross-talk,electromigration in routing stage is difficult.So we are applying ndr rules

Q 49.What is congestion?
A. When the available tracks are less than the required tracks this effect will occu
signals are more than the tracks then congestion will occur.
