Clock
The clock is a periodic synchronization signal used as a time reference for data
transfers in synchronous digital systems.
T(Clk Period)
Gated clock
• Clock gating reduces power consumption by switching off the clock to
flipflops when the value of those flipflops does not change.
• It is mainly used in Low Power Applications.

Virtual clock
• Virtual clock has no sources.
• Not connected to any port or pin within the current design
• Mainly used to model the I/O timing specification
• Serves as a reference for input or output delays
