CLOCK DISTRIBUTION NETWORK ARCHITECTURE FOR RESONANT-CLOCKED SYSTEMS
摘要
Disclosed herein is a digital system that includes a distribution network to carry a reference clock and a plurality of circuit domains coupled to the distribution network to receive the reference clock for synchronous operation in accordance with the reference clock. Each circuit domain of the plurality of circuit domains includes a respective clock generator driven by the reference clock to generate a resonant clock signal, respective circuitry coupled to the clock generator to operate in accordance with the resonant clock signal, with the circuitry including a capacitive load for the resonant clock signal, and a respective inductance coupled to the circuitry and the clock generator to resonate the capacitive load of the circuitry.
