Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses and methods for drivers with reduced voltage noise. Clock signals may be provided to semiconductor devices, and may be distributed throughout the device. Driven are provided along signal paths within the device which may act as buffers for the clock signals. Each clock signal may be coupled to multiple driver circuits within the driver. Each of the multiple driver circuits may be coupled to a different pair of power supply voltage lines. The driver circuits may all have a similar delay to each other.
