Abstract: A novel clock splitter that has a local internal clock frequency-divider is presented. The clock splitter comprises an oscillator clock splitter, wherein the oscillator clock splitter splits an oscillator clock signal into a B clock and a C clock; a clock frequency-divider, wherein the clock frequency-divider selectively suppresses clock pulses in the C clock to generate a slower C clock signal that is slower than the oscillator clock; and a B/C clock order logic, wherein the B/C clock order logic phase shifts the C clock relative to a B clock. The clock frequency-divider may selectively suppress pulses in the B clock to generate a slower B clock signal. The slower B and C clock signals may have a same or different frequency. In one embodiment, the clock splitter is located at a terminal leaf of a clock tree.

Abstract: A method, system and computer-readable medium are presented for creating unique clock waveform checking commands for an event simulator to validate that the logical creation matches the timing definitions. The method includes selecting one or more clock signals for validation; specifying timing definitions of the selected clock signals; automatically categorizing the selected clock signals based on their synchrony; automatically matching each selected clock signal to a corresponding clock cycle by parsing the specified timing definitions; specifying one or more test cases for an event simulator, wherein the test cases simulate logic for generating each selected clock signal; validating that the logic for generating each selected clock signal matches the specified timing definitions for each selected clock signal.
