An advanced repeater utilizing signal distribution delay. In accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention, such an advanced repeater circuit comprises an output stage for driving an output signal line responsive to an input signal and a feedback loop coupled to said output signal line for changing state of said output stage subsequent to a delay after a transition of said output signal. The delay is due to transmission line effects of said output signal line.

Clock signal distribution system and method

Systems and methods of double diamond clock and power distribution. In accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention, an integrated circuit comprises a first metallization layer. that is substantially a power plane and a second metallization layer disposed immediately adjacent to the first metallization layer. The first metallization layer and the second metallization layer are separated by an inter-plane distance. A signal trace on the first metallization layer is separated from the power plane by about three times the inter-plane distance.
