Set up/ Hold Time--- Help Required.

Which one is critical for estimating maximum clock frequency of a circuit?
Set up/ Hold Time???/
Answer me.

 

[pradeepbakthavachalam]

set up and hold times come into picture when you go for high speed designs. however neither of them decides the clock frequency. its all about how you fix those times in your design for better data handling

How can the minimum clock period be less that the sum of setup and hold times?
