Process

Contacted by HR. Was asked questions on digital logic design, static timing analysis, and C programming. The interview was purely technical. The difficulty level was high.

Question 1: What is setup time? What is hold time?

Question 2: Which is better, a setup or hold time violation?

Question 3: If we have a setup constraint in the given circuit, how can we solve it?

Question 4: Was given a circuit and told that there is a setup violation; how to solve it?
