This paper presents an application of a new analytic signal method for measuring clock skews in the clock distribution network of microprocessors. The method can measure skews between the master system clock and distributed clocks, between two distributed clocks, or between clocks whose frequencies are related by frequency division. Experimental data using a PowerPC TM microprocessor is presented for validation.
