One example method includes receiving an RTL representation of an IC; automatically inferring one or more memory blocks in the RTL representation of the IC; identifying one or more input ports and one or more output ports of the one or more memory blocks; designating the one or more input ports and the one or more output ports as one or more start points and one or more end points; and performing domain crossing analysis on the RTL representation.
