Course Description
                        In this course, you explore the features of the Cadence? Encounter? RTL Compiler with global synthesis technology. You learn several techniques to constrain designs, run static timing analysis, evaluate datapath logic, optimize for low power, and interface with other tools.
                        Learning Objectives
                        After completing this course, you will be able to:
                        
                          - Apply the recommended global synthesis flow using Encounter RTL Compiler.
 
                          - Navigate the design database and manipulate design objects.
 
                          - Constrain designs for global synthesis and run static timing analysis.
 
                          - Optimize RTL designs for timing and area using several strategies.
 
                          - Diagnose and analyze synthesis results.
 
                          - Use the extended datapath features of the compiler.
 
                          - Analyze and synthesize the design for low-power.
 
                          - Interface with other tools and place-and-route flows.
