Performance of a system clock design depends on the operating clock period and cycle count, which is the same as the number of control steps for a design without loops. A method is proposed which maximises performance by adjusting the clock period and cycle count. Experimental results show that this method reduces the latency by 29.4% on average, compared to the conventional high-level synthesis method
