Abstract

A system on a chip integrated circuit includes a first circuit module and N other circuit modules that are operable to produce at least one output signal based on at least one input signal. A reference oscillator for generating a base clock signal for the first circuit module. A clock delay generator generates N delayed clock signals at a corresponding N clock delays, wherein N is greater than or equal to 2. The N delayed clock signals are provided to the N other circuit modules.
