Abstract

See full text

A process is provided for optimizing a clock net in the form of a tree having a root defined by a driver pin and a plurality of leaves defined by driven pins. The process includes forcing a first buffer to a center of gravity of the plurality of leaves, inserting a set of second buffers so each leaf is driven by an inserted buffer without timing violations, and moving the first buffer to a center of gravity of the set of second buffers.
