Gated Clock Routing Minimizing the Switched Capacitance
This paper presents a zero-skew gated clock routing technique for VLSI circuits. The gated clock tree has masking gates at the internal nodes of the clock tree, which are selectiv...

Activity-Aware Registers Placement for Low Power Gated Clock Tree Construction
As power consumption of the clock tree dominates over 40% of the total power in modern high performance VLSI designs, measures must be taken to keep it under control. One of the m...

Parasitic Aware Routing Methodology Based on Higher Order RLCK Moment Metrics
In the multi-GHz frequency domain, inductive and capacitive parasitics of interconnects can cause significant 'ringing' or overdamping, which may lead to false switching...
