Why do we use a Clock tree?

Answer Posted / arghya sasmal

During CTS our goal is to
1) minimize the clock skew
2)minimize the clock tree power dissipation
In CTS buffers and inverters are placed in clock net to minimize the skew.

Clock nets are optimized and their driving cells are supposed to match RC values and impedance ...and minimize the clock tree power dissipation
