what is clock skew?how to remove it?

in any asic u need to to route ur clock according to your clock tree network.so when the master clock signal passes through wires,then naturally is will be obtained at the output with a finite delay.what matters is not the absolute skew.if u can make the clock delayed by the same amount,it makes it easier for you to develop system timing.usually some kind of clock network which balances the delay paths to all the blocks which are almost at the same wire length away from the master is used.ed:h-clock tree network.

There's wire delay,so when clock transits from clock source to registers,the delay not equal ,so skew happens.Insert clock tree to slove this problem.
 

spatial variation in the arrival time of the clock pulse thru the circuitry is called clock skew. Skew can be avoided by having buffers which can amplify the signals. skew cannot be totally avoided bvut can only be minimized.

with regards,
 

maybe you can change the loading and pad current driving strength.It sometimes changes the clock skew.
 

the skew is the time difference that clock edge arrive different DFF clock inputs.

you can use balanced clock tree to minimize clock skew.
