clocks advantages

Hi All,

What are the Advantages and Disadvantages of Gated Clocks.

Also tell me the application of Gated Clocks

Regards
 

digital clock advantage

In short,

Advantage: save power

Disadvantage: difficult to manage the timing during synthesis and STA . Besides, if something wrong, it's also hard to debug :(

advantages of clock gating

saves power but it is complex in terms of design and issues...
 

disadvantages of clocks

It is used to turn off the flops when we don't need.

I have no idea about disadvantages of Gated clock.

Friends, Please provide your views in this regard.
 

what are the disadvantages of a digital clock

Gated clock - Difficult to verify in GLS ,
Physical perspective - more insertion delay for clock tree
Inreases area , complicates timing closure with all the clock gating checks.... (just a lil bit)
 

advantages disadvantages of clock gating

Clock Gating

Dis Advantage: hard to implement CTS . But tools are now capable do it

Advantage: use d to decrease the Dynamic Power consumption
 

disadvantage of a digital clock

Hi,
Yes it's advantage is to reduce the consumed dynamic power. However the advantage is the complexity of implementations (the logic of gating controler) as well as the additional area taken by this controller.

You mean disadvantage
