    摘要: Some aspects of this disclosure are directed to implementing formal gated clock conversion for field programmable gate array (FPGA) synthesis. For example, some aspects of this disclosure relate to a method, including receiving network representation of a circuit design, determining a gated clock function corresponding to a target component of the network representation, and constructing an edge function based at least in part on the gated clock function. The method further includes performing a minimization of the edge function, and in response to a determination that the minimization of the edge function comprises a first term and a second term, providing a clock enable signal to the target component based on the first term, and providing a clock signal to the target component based on the second term.
