A High-Frequency Clock Distribution Network Using Inductively Loaded Standing-Wa

Abstract

ent paper introduces a resonant clock gen- eration and distribution scheme that uses uniform amplitude and uniform phase standing wave oscillators in order to distribute a high-frequency clock signal with low skew, low jitter, and low power. A suitable distributed resonator for a global clock distri- bution that is inductively loaded transmission line generating a uniform amplitude and uniform phase standing wave is realized through detailed analysis of a standing wave on a loaded trans- mission
