Abstract
A wave pipeline includes a plurality of data paths, a clock signal path, and a return clock signal path. Each data path includes an input node, an output node, and a data stage between the input node and the output node. Each data path has a different delay between the input node and the output node. A first data path of the plurality of data paths has a first delay and each of the other data paths of the plurality of data paths have a delay less than the first delay. The clock signal path provides a clock signal to the data stage of each data path. The return clock signal path provides a return clock signal from the data stage of the first data path. The return clock signal triggers data out of the data stage of each data path of the plurality of data paths.
