Abstract

In accordance with some embodiments, a method for high frequency clock distribution in a VLSI system includes splitting an original master clock signal into one or more pairs of lower-frequency sub-clocks for a destination in the VLSI system, distributing each lower-frequency sub-clock of the one or more pairs of lower-frequency sub-clocks to a corresponding channel coupled to the destination, and reconstructing a reference master clock signal at the destination from the one or more pairs of lower-frequency sub-clocks, wherein the reconstructed reference master clock signal replicates the original master clock signal.
