Statistical Analysis of Clock Skew Variation in H-Tree Structure
This paper discusses clock skew due to manufacturing variability and environmental change. In clock tree design, transition time constraint is an important design parameter that c...

Low power synthesis of dynamic logic circuits using fine-grained clock gating
— Clock power consumes a significant fraction of total power dissipation in high speed precharge/evaluate logic styles. In this paper, we present a novel low-cost design methodol...

Self-Timed Circuitry for Global Clocking
We present an apparatus used to distribute a timing reference or clock across the extent of a digital system. Selftimed circuitry both generates and distributes a clock signal, wh...

Clock-tree power optimization based on RTL clock-gating
As power consumption of the clock tree in modern VLSI designs tends to dominate, measures must be taken to keep it under control. This paper introduces an approach for reducing cl...

Impact of Technology Scaling in the Clock System Power
The clock distribution and generation circuitry is known to consume more than a quarter of the power budget of existing microprocessors. A previously derived clock energy model is...
