Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes a first circuit and a plurality of first power supply lines for providing a first power to the first circuit. A first intra-chip clock interface generates a first clock signal on the first power supply lines. A plurality of second power supply lines are coupled to the plurality of first power supply lines and further couple a second power to the second circuit. A second intra-chip clock interface recovers the first clock signal from the second power supply lines. The second circuit operates based on the first clock signal.
