A Floorplan-Based Planning Methodology for Power and Clock Distribution in ASICs
In deep submicron technology, IR-drop and clock skew issues become more crucial to the functionality of chip. This paper presents a oorplan-based power and clock distribution meth...

Clock buffer polarity assignment for power noise reduction
Abstract—Power/ground noise is a major source of VLSI circuit timing variations. This work aims to reduce clock network induced power noise by assigning different signal polariti...

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...

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...

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...
