A system that includes a clock tree and multiple variable delay components. The system is characterized by including a first set of fuses indicative of identities of variable delay components that belong to a first set of variable delay components, a second set of fuses indicative of delay values of the variable delay components that belong to the first set of variable delay components, and a second set of variable delay components that are set to at least one default delay value. A method for reducing clock skews, the method includes providing a clock tree that includes a set of variable delay components. The method is characterized by selecting a first set of variable delay components in view of timing violations occurring due clock skews, setting delay values of variable delay components that form a first set of variable delay components by programming fuses, and setting delay values of variable delay components that form a second set of variable delay components to at least one default value.
