Abstract

A clock source outputs a clock signal. A first delay line receives a first clock source signal and produces a first output, the first clock source signal at least partially based on the clock signal. A first clock spine receives the first output and produces a global reference clock signal. A second delay line receives a second clock source signal and produces a second output, the second clock source signal at least partially based on the clock signal. A second clock spine receives the second output and produces a global feedback clock signal. A global phase detector detects a phase difference between the global reference clock signal and the global feedback clock signal to produce a global phase detector output. The second clock source signal is controlled at least partially based on the global phase detector output.
