Clock skew is becoming increasingly difficult to control due to variations. Link based non-tree clock distribution is a cost-effective technique for reducing clock skew variation...
This paper discusses the use of networks-on-chip (NoCs) consisting of multiple voltage-frequency islands to cope with power consumption, clock distribution and parameter variation...
We present a low-power sine-output Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer (DDFS) realized in 0.18 µm CMOS that achieves 60 dBc spectral purity from DC to the Nyquist frequency. No ...
The problem of test generation belongs to the class of NP-complete problems and it is becoming more and more di cult as the complexity of VLSI circuits increases, and as long as e...

Due to difficulties in distributing a single global clock signal over increasingly large chip areas, a globally asynchronous, locally synchronous design is considered a promising ...
