    摘要: This invention is a means to definitively establish the occurrence of various clock edges used in a design, balancing clock edges at various locations within an integrated circuit. Clocks entering from outside sources can be a source of on-chip-variations (OCV) resulting in unacceptable clock edge skewing. The present invention arranges placement of the various clock dividers on the chip at remote locations where these clocks are used. This minimizes the uncertainty of the edge occurrence.
