Methods, systems, and circuits for forming and operating a global hierarchical clock tree are described. The global hierarchical clock tree may comprise a clock circuit that operates to provide clock signals to a core circuit surrounded by the clock circuit. The clock circuit may include two or more first and second clock generator modules to generate a first and a second set of clock signals, respectively. The first and second clock modules may be located so that the first set of clock signals experience approximately equal first latencies and the second set of clock signals experience approximately equal second latencies. Additional methods, systems, and circuits are disclosed.
