Abstract

A circuit for routing signals in an integrated circuit is disclosed. The circuit comprises a path having a plurality of registers coupled in series and including a source register, a destination register and at least one intermediate register; a clock generator generating a clock signal; and a delay element coupled to receive the clock signal and generate a delayed clock signal, wherein the delayed clock signal is coupled to a clock input of the at least one intermediate register. A method of routing signals in an integrated circuit is also disclosed.
