Abstract — This paper investigates methods for minimizing the impact of process variation on clock skew using buffer and wire sizing. While most papers on clock trees ignore data-path circuit variations and most papers on data-path circuit optimization dis-regard clock tree variation, we consider both. Using both clock and data-path variations together, we present a novel sensitivity-matching algorithm that allows clock tree skews to be intention-ally correlated with data-path sensitivities to ameliorate timing violations due to variation. Our statistical tuning shows an im-provement in terms of expected clock skew and clock skew varia-tion over previously published robust algorithms. I
