An Adaptive Method for Reducing Clock Skew in an Accumulative Z-Axis Interconnect System

Abstract

This paper will present several methods for adjusting clock skew variations that occur in a n accumulative z-axis interconnect system. In such a system, delay between modules in a function of their distance from one another. Clock distribution in a high-speed system, where clock skew must be kept to a minimum, becomes more challenging when module order is variable before design.
