APPARATUS FOR DISTRIBUTING CLOCK PULSES ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A plurality of transmission lines communicate potentially skewed clock pulses from a source of clock pulses. A combining transmission line is coupled to the plurality of transmission lines at a common node. The impedance of the combining transmission line is chosen to be substantially equal to the parallel impedances of the plurality of transmission lines to prevent reflections which degrade the clock signal. As a result, the combining transmission line combines the received clock pulses into a single clock pulse. A plurality of distribution lines are thereafter coupled to the combining transmission line at a single node. The parallel impedances of the plurality of distribution lines are chosen to be substantially equal to the impedance of the combining transmission line, once again to prevent reflections which would degrade the clock signal. The plurality of distribution lines then communicate the single clock pulses to their associated clock driven circuitry. I9/12172-20
