hi all,
For eg : a path between two flops (FF1 - FF2) has a big comb. logic which gives my required output at 3 capturing clock of FF2.
since there exists a multicycle path between two flops if i break my comb logic and use pipelining of same two regs ....is this a correct method ?

Eg : FF1 - comb - FF2

Changed : FF1 - (comb1 - FF) - (comb1 - FF) -FF2

help appreciated.
 

It is ok to have multicycle path. If you do want to pipeline it, it should be changed to:

FF1 - comb1 - FF - comb2 - FF - comb3 - FF2

Hope this helps.
