Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. What is cross talk
  • Ans. 

    Cross talk is the unwanted transfer of signals between different components or traces on a circuit board.

    • Occurs when signals from one trace interfere with signals on another trace

    • Can lead to signal distortion or errors in data transmission

    • Prevented by proper spacing and shielding between traces

    • Example: Cross talk between data lines on a PCB causing errors in communication

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. How to define generated clocks through edges
  • Ans. 

    Generated clocks through edges are defined by specifying the source clock and the edge on which the generated clock is based.

    • Specify the source clock for the generated clock

    • Define the edge (rising/falling) on which the generated clock is based

    • Use tools like Synopsys Design Compiler to define generated clocks
