Abstract: A clock tree design tool is described which receives input from a user via a graphical user interface (GUI) through a first window, the input including an indication of an output clock frequency. The tool also detects selection by the user of a soft control and, as a result of detecting selection of the soft control, generates a plurality of clock tree solutions. The tool further causes a graphical form of a highlighted one of the clock tree solutions to be displayed in a second window of the GUI. An algorithm for generating the various clock tree solutions is also disclosed.
