Hydra is a computer hardware description language that integrates several kinds of software tool (simulation, netlist generation and timing analysis) within a single circuit speci...
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...
Abstract-- Nanometer VLSI systems demand robust clock distribution network design for increased process and operating condition variabilities. In this paper, we propose minimum clo...
