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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Clock domain crossings are significant sources of field system failures. Despite this fact, designs continue to be released without fully verified CDCs. A false sense of security resulting from ...
One of the biggest challenges of system-on-chip (SOC) designs is that different blocks operate on independent clocks. Integrating these blocks via the processor bus, memory ports, peripheral busses, ...
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 ...
