ABSTRACT:
A design structure to reduce power consumption within a clock gated synchronous circuit, said synchronous circuit comprising at least two successive stages, wherein each stage if activated propagates a data signal cycle by cycle to a succeeding stage the two successive stages comprising at least a control register, a data register and a local clock buffer (LCB) each, wherein each stage if activated propagates a data signal stored within the data register cycle by cycle to a data register of a succeeding stage.
