Clock distribution networks are critical components in modern integrated circuits, ensuring that the timing signal reaches every element with minimal delay and skew. As device geometries shrink and ...

Laying the proper clock network architecture foundation makes all the difference for the best performance, power, and timing of a chip, particularly in advanced node SoCs packed with billions of ...

In a recent study done by McKinsey and IDC, we see that physical design and verification costs are increasing exponentially with shrinking transistor sizes. As figure 1 shows, physical design (PD) and ...

High performance clock buffers — those without phase-locked loops (PLLs) — are often used in communications designs for duplication, distribution and fanout of clock signals. Sensitivity to long-term ...

The importance of timing requirements and jitter budgets for FPGAs, ASICs, and SoCs. How to utilize the information portrayed in a clock tree to choose the most well-suited clock generator for your ...

[Oleg Kutkov] decided to build a wideband SDR – for satellite communication research and monitoring, you know, the usual. He decided on a battery of HackRF boards – entire eight of them, in fact. Two ...
