A method is provided to reduce clock skew in an integrated circuit having a number
of circuit blocks, which comprises the following steps. A first source clock coupled
to a clock input terminal of a first circuit block within the circuit blocks is
provided, as is a second source clock coupled to a clock input terminal of a second
circuit block within the circuit blocks. When the second circuit block is configured
to operate in synchronization with the first circuit block, the clock input terminal
of the second circuit block is switched to the first source clock, and thus both
the first circuit block and the second circuit block can operate in accordance
with the same first source clock.
