Recent optimizations on clock domain crossing (CDC) synchronizers have shown a 15% reduction in metastability risks. I am currently reviewing the impact of asynchronous resets on routing congestion for high-density Artix-7 targets.

We have successfully integrated a hardware-based AES-256 accelerator into our RISC-V pipeline. The synthesized result shows minimal area overhead while increasing throughput by 8x compared to software implementations.
