Of course the timing path(s) may also be displayed together with rail analysis (IR drop) results, although they
are not in this example for readability. One example of using the timing debug GUI would be to inspect a data
path and its associated clock path. If they pass through areas of widely different IR drop, setup or hold
problems that were not seen in the nominal voltage timing analysis may be seen. The GUI is not strictly
needed here; you will see the results of IR drop in the regular timing reports. But the GUI may assist the
designer in determining, for example, the cause of clock skew.
