Abstract: Transferring data from a first clock domain to a second clock domain, wherein the second clock domain has a fixed clock frequency, and the first clock domain has a variable clock frequency. The first clock domain and the second clock domain operate in a synchronous mode when the variable clock frequency is equal to the fixed clock frequency, and in an asynchronous mode when the variable frequency is lower than the fixed frequency. A first buffer and a second buffer are used for a data transfer from the first clock domain to the second clock domain. The second clock domain comprises a multiplexor connected to the first buffer and the second buffer. The multiplexor forwards data from the first buffer further into the second clock domain in the synchronous mode and from the second buffer into the second clock domain in the asynchronous mode.

Abstract: A computer system is provided which includes a plurality of nodes, which include chips of different types. In each node, one of the chips is configured as a master chip, which is connected to one or more slave chips via two or more multi-drop nets (e.g., checkstop, clockrun). The master chip and the slave chips are connected to a reference clock, and event triggering information is transmitted via the multi-drop nets (checkstop, clockrun) to the slave chips. Event trigger commands are submitted by the master chip when it receives a request, and internal offset counters are used to adjust both the receiving cycle and the cycle when the command is propagated to the units on the chips. In operation, the offset counters are synchronized by a reference clock.
