A clock distribution tree for an integrated circuit memory includes a set of data drivers, a corresponding set of input buffers coupled to the data drivers, a first clock distribution tree coupled to the data drivers, and a second clock distribution tree coupled to the input buffers, wherein the first and second clock distribution tree are substantially matched and mirrored distribution trees. The line width of the first clock distribution tree is substantially the same as the line width of the second clock distribution tree. The line spacing of the first clock distribution tree is substantially the same as the line spacing of the second clock distribution tree. Numerous topologies for the first and second clock distribution trees can be accommodated, as long as they are matched and mirrored. Valid times for the integrated circuit memory are maximized and data and clock skew is minimized.
