SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CLOCK NETWORK META-SYNTHESIS

In accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure a method for constructing a clock network comprises receiving design specifications for a clock network. The method further comprises determining a topology of the clock network based on the design specifications. The topology indicates at least one of a plurality of levels of the clock network, a buffer type for each level and a buffer fanout for each level. The method additionally comprises determining design parameters for the clock network based on the determined topology and generating a clock network synthesis tool specification file that includes the design parameters. The method also comprises synthesizing the clock network using the specification file such that the clock network includes the determined topology and such that the clock network synchronously distributes a clock signal from a clock generator to endpoints of the clock network.
