Minimal skew clock embedding considering time variant temperature gradient
The existing temperature-aware clock embedding assumes a time-invariant temperature gradient. However, it is not solved how to find the worst-case temperature gradient leading to...

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...

Dynamic thermal clock skew compensation using tunable delay buffers
—The thermal gradients existing in high-performance circuits may significantly affect their timing behavior, in particular, by increasing the skew of the clock net and/or alteri...

Implementation of a thermal management unit for canceling temperature-dependent clock skew variations
Thermal gradients across the die are becoming increasingly prominent as we scale further down into the sub-nanometer regime. While temperature was never a primary concern, its non...
