    摘要:

    针对传统并行计时器资源占用高、并发数低、时序收敛困难等问题,提出了一种在 ASIC上实现的并行计时器,能够解决高并发场景下的并行计时问题。所提出的设计基于 3个主要概念:一是使用了分级计时架构,将一次长时间的计时任务分割为 1至 3个独立的子任务,结合多个时钟监控模块实现对所有计时任务的精确管理;二是数据存储于片上 SRAM中,显著降低了电路面积和动态功耗;三是多级并行处理,大幅提升了任务处理效率。使用 DC工具逻辑综合,搭建验证环境在多种场景下测试验证,结果表明该计时器在合适的参数配置下,当并发数高达 4 096时,在大多数场景下平均绝对百分比误差依然小于 0. 1%,保持了较高的精度、较低的动态功耗、较小的面积和较高的可拓展性。

    Abstract:

    To address the high resource consumption,low concurrency,and timing convergence challenges found in traditional parallel timers,a parallel timer implemented on an application-specific IC(ASIC)is proposed to solve the parallel timing problem in high-concurrency scenarios. The proposed design is based on three main concepts: First,a hierarchical timing architecture splits the long-duration timing task into up to three independent sub-tasks, combined with multiple timer monitoring modules to achieve precise management of all timing tasks. Second,data storage in on-chip static RAM significantly reduces circuit area and dynamic power consumption. Third,multi-level parallel processing greatly improves task processing efficiency. Logic synthesis was performed using DC tools,and a verification environment was built to test and validate the design in various scenarios. The results show that,with appropriate parameter configurations,the timer maintains high accuracy,low dynamic power consumption,small area, and high scalability,with an average absolute percentage error of less than 0. 1% in most scenarios,even when concurrency reached 4 096.
