Abstract
A split-logic-clock-buffer (split-LCB) includes an input clock stage configured to receive an input clock signal, an output drive stage configured to output an output clock signal, and a clock distribution network interposed between the input clock stage and the output drive stage. The clock distribution network is configured to route the input clock signal to the drive output stage. The output drive stage includes an temperature sense circuit region that splits the output drive stage into an upstream drive portion and a downstream drive portion.
