The Risk of Not Optimizing Clock Power

Clock power is rarely the issue teams expect to limit advanced-node designs. Yet in many chips today, over-driven clock networks quietly consume disproportionate power, reduce thermal headroom, and can constrain achievable frequency. And all while passing traditional sign-off checks and often remaining locked in through… Read More
