2.
Propagation delay is important because ________.
the logic gates must be given a short break during each clock cycle or else they will overheat
it limits the maximum operating frequency of a gate
it is a measure of how long the clock must be applied to the gate before it will make the required decision
all the gates in a system must have the same propagation times in order to be compatible
