Due to shrinking technologies and increasing design sizes, it is becoming more difficult and expensive to distribute a global clock signal with low skew throughout a processor di...
The evolution of deep submicron technologies allows the development of increasingly complex Systems on a Chip (SoC). However, this evolution is rendering less viable some well-est...
