  • Patent number: 6867632
    Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit device for minimizing clock skew over clock wiring shortened for reduced wiring delays. A plurality of stages of clock drivers are provided on clock wiring paths ranging from a clock generator to flip-flops. Clock lines connecting upper stage clock drivers are equalized in length in the form of a tree structure, and clock lines connecting lower stage clock drivers are made as short as possible.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 27, 2003
    Date of Patent: March 15, 2005
    Assignee: Renesas Technology Corp.
