Figure3illustrates the overall synthesis flow of a mesh clock network; we synthesize a mesh clock network in a bottom-up manner. Clock sinks are first grouped together based on their locations; maximum fanout of postmesh buffers, which are inserted and sized properly once the groups are formed,...
In this paper, we propose an opposite-phase clock scheme to reduce the peak current incurred by the clock tree. Our basic idea is to balance the charging and discharging activities. According to the output operation, the clock buffers that transit simultaneously are divided into two groups: ...
The advanced abilities ofvSync Circuits Vincent Platormprovide a complete solution for multiple clock domain ASIC/FPGA integration and CDC verification, covering all the stages of the VLSI design flow: from the RTL design down to GDSII/Bitsream. ...
In the design of high performance VLSI systems, minimization of clock skew is an increasingly important objective. Additionally, wirelength of clock routing trees should be minimized in order to reduce system power requirements and deformation of the clock ...

Counters are widely used in current VLSI digital circuits, and optimized low-power versions of them are of important concern. Different ways of applying clock gating are considered: clock gating on independent bits and clock gating on groups of bits with different synchronization schemes. The ...
