Synchronous interfaces involve a single clock domain and are relatively easy to design. However, at times, it is advantageous and necessary to have an asynchronous interface between peripherals for ...
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Silicon Labs (NASDAQ: SLAB), a premier supplier of high-performance timing solutions for Internet infrastructure applications, today introduced the industry’s ...
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced that its 8A34001 System Synchronizer for IEEE 1588 is being ...
The modern ASIC consists of millions of gates and billions of transistors that often can be operating in several domains having different voltages and clock frequencies. To avoid data loss, designers ...
Whether designing SOCs with traditional synchronous logic or alternative locally, or self-clocked "asynchronous" blocks, verification has become more important, difficult and time consuming, ...
Multiple, independent clocks are ubiquitous in system-on-chip (SoC) design. Most SoC devices have multiple interfaces, some following standards that use very different clock frequencies. Many modern ...
Clocks are power- and area- hungry, and difficult to distribute in a controlled manner. What is being done to reign in these unwieldy beasts? The synchronous digital design paradigm has enabled us to ...
The IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol enables precise time synchronization over the packet-based Ethernet network so that the time on a slave clock at one end of the network agrees with a master clock ...
As design sizes continue to grow, proliferation of internal and external protocols, along with aggressive power requirements are driving an explosion in the number of asynchronous clocks in today’s ...
