What's inside

One design, followed through every stage, so each concept arrives when the design needs it.

Covers setup and hold, clock uncertainty, derates and OCV, multi-corner analysis, and the fix hierarchy from sizing to restructuring.

Ends with a worked timing report and an annotated critical path.
