## 2. Design Considerations
### Common Design Pitfalls and Solutions
Timing Closure Issues
- *Pitfall*: Inadequate timing analysis leading to setup/hold violations
- *Solution*: Perform comprehensive static timing analysis using manufacturer tools
- *Implementation*: Account for worst-case propagation delays (15ns) in clock distribution
Power Supply Decoupling
- *Pitfall*: Insufficient decoupling causing signal integrity problems
- *Solution*: Implement 0.1μF ceramic capacitors at each VCC pin
- *Implementation*: Place decoupling capacitors within 5mm of device pins
Input Signal Conditioning
- *Pitfall*: Floating inputs causing excessive power consumption
- *Solution*: Implement pull-up/pull-down resistors on unused inputs
- *Implementation*: Use 10kΩ resistors to tie unused inputs to VCC or GND
