Abstract

See full text

A method for designing a system on a target device includes describing the system in a high-level synthesis language where the system includes a configurable clock to drive the system at a specified clock frequency. A hardware description language (HDL) of the system is generated from the high-level synthesis language. An initial compilation of the HDL of the system is performed in response to the specified clock frequency. Timing analysis is performed on the system after the initial compilation of the HDL to determine a maximum frequency which the system can be driven. The configurable clock is programmed to drive the system at the maximum frequency.
