Global Resource Characteristics
A2F200 Clock Tree Topology
Clock delays are device-specific. Figure 2-27 is an example of a global tree used for clock routing. The
global tree presented in Figure 2-27 is driven by a CCC located on the west side of the A2F200 device. It
is used to drive all D-flip-flops in the device.
Global Tree Timing Characteristics
Global clock delays include the central rib delay, the spine delay, and the row delay. Delays do not
include I/O input buffer clock delays, as these are I/O standard–dependent, and the clock may be driven
and conditioned internally by the CCC module. For more details on clock conditioning capabilities, refer
to the "Clock Conditioning Circuits" section on page 2-63. Table 2-80 through Table 2-82 on page 2-61
present minimum and maximum global clock delays for the SmartFusion cSoCs. Minimum and maximum
delays are measured with minimum and maximum loading.
