Abstract:
Systems and methods for application specific integrated circuit design using Chronos Links are disclosed. A Chronos Link is an ASIC on-chip and off-chip interconnect communication protocol that allows interfaces to transmit and receive information. The protocol may utilize messages or signals to indicate the availability and/or readiness of information to be exchanged between a producer and a consumer allowing the communication to be placed on hold and to be resumed seamlessly. A method includes inserting gaskets and channel repeaters connected to interfaces of multiple intellectual property (IP) blocks in order to replace traditional links with Chronos Links; performing simplified floorplanning; performing simplified placement; performing simplified clock tree synthesis (CTS) and routing; and performing simplified timing closure.

Claim (Index 14):
The chip of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one gasket is based on at least one of a physical boundary of one of the first and second IP blocks, information on clock domains of the first and second IP blocks, location of pins of the first and second IP blocks and a type of connection between the first and second IP blocks.
