Hi,

I've a synthesized netlist with a SPEF and SDC file. My design has some small timing violations. I would like to know if there is a command to optimize timing inside ICC? I'm looking for something like:

read_verilog ...
read_sdc ...
read_parasitics ...

optimize_timing ... # is there a command of this sort

I want to optimize in incremental fashion without much worsening the power.

I'm fine with using DC as well. However, I could not get it to annotate parasitics to my design. Net delays were always 0 inside DC.

Regards
Ankur
 

Of course there is. You can start with a simple place_opt. This is covered in any basic tutorial/documentation.
