Interconnect delays are increasingly becoming the dominant source of performance degradation in the nano-meter regime, largely because the wires do not scale as fast as the device...

Abstract—Design guidelines for resonant H-tree clock distribution networks are presented in this paper. A distributed model of a two-level resonant H-tree structure is described,...
A sensitivity analysis of resonant H-tree clock distribution networks is presented in this paper for a TSMC 0.18 μm CMOS technology. The analysis focuses on the effect of the dri...
Clock distribution has traditionally been a circuit design problem with negligible micro-architectural impact. However, for clock distribution networks using multiple phase-locked...
