Tips to minimize output-output skew are as follows:

1. Keep same length transmission lines at output.

2. Allow only one frequency output simultaneously.

3. Use same Vdd on all output buffers.

4. Terminate outputs in same way; use sufficient bypass capacitors.

5. For devices in parallel, feed inputs same ref clock in most symmetrical way possible.

6. Route outputs in most symmetrical way possible.
