  • Fully digital method for generating sub clock division and clock waves
    Patent number: 8558589
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides circuitry and a method for digital clock generation including the generation of integer and non-integer sub clocks. The proposed method provides simplified constant signal propagation and low skew in the divided clock path independent of division factor. Also provided is a simplified mechanism for generating low power clock patterns divided down by factors which are non-integer, phase-shifted, repeated pulse trains, dynamically changing and glitch-free.
    Type: Grant
