Abstract :
In this paper, the skew by data dependent gate loading has been analysized. A method based on the concept of MOS parametric capacitance has been proposed. According to different data dependent of the MOS transistor, including transient channel charge and Miller effects, the values of capacitance in different data loadings have been extracted. Two clock tree routes have been analyzed by using the gate loading effect. Results revealed that the simulation result including the gate loading approaches to the actual ones closely.
