The document discusses various topics related to the physical design process such as sanity checks on synthesis and netlists, pre-PNR checks, floor planning guidelines, congestion reduction techniques, setup and hold slack fixes, cross talk reduction, Innovus commands, LEF/DEF files, physical design flow, CTS inputs and exceptions, and fixing setup violations without changing the data path. It also asks about the person's background and challenges faced in projects.

What are Sanity checks will you perform on synthesis and net list
Pre Pnr checks
What are the inputs for pnr What is the core utilization you have given before floor plan How is the utilization on later stage if (yes/no) why? Floor plan guide lines What are the checks will you do after placing floor plan What is congestion Reduction techniques of congestion If you are seeing congestion at the notch of the core how will reduce the congestion What are the reports you check after placement Set up slack fixes CTS inputs If we are unable to meet the latency targets what will u do Set up slack fixes and hold slacks fixes? What is cross talk how will reduce the cross talk Difference between cross talk and noise Innovus commands Scripting,which language you are using Inputs for cts What is lef and def What is physical design process What is cross talk reduction techniques Different type of cells used in cts Challenges done in your project Tools used in your project Why we will not you low and high strength cells clock path? What are cts exceptions? Given some scenarios like same path violating for setup and how you fix them? We are seeing setup violation you must not touch data path, how you fix them? About yourself
