Abstract

A method for analyzing a circuit design is disclosed. The method generally includes the steps of (A) determining a plurality of paths from a first clock at a first location to a plurality of second clocks at a plurality of second locations in the circuit design, (B) calculating a plurality of delays along the paths and (C) calculating a plurality of latencies with respect to the first clock for the second clocks using the delays.
