摘要: A method and apparatus for synchronizing a timebase is disclosed. A timebase management circuit includes limit circuitry, in a first clock domain, which generates, based on a global timebase, an initial timebase limit. The timebase management circuit includes, in a second clock domain, adjustment circuitry that generates an adjusted timebase limit based on the initial timebase limit. A storage circuit in the second clock domain stores a local timebase. Update circuitry, coupled to an output of the storage circuit, generates an updated local timebase using a clock signal in the second clock domain, wherein the updated local timebase is subject to the adjusted timebase limit.

摘要: An apparatus may include first and second clock monitors. The first clock monitor may be configured to receive a first clock signal and assert a first signal if the frequency of the first clock signal is greater than a first upper threshold and assert a second signal if the frequency of the first clock signal is less than a first lower threshold. The second clock monitor may be configured to receive a second clock signal with a frequency higher than that of the first clock signal. The second clock monitor may be configured to compare the second clock signal, dependent upon the first clock signal, to second upper and lower thresholds and assert a third signal if the frequency of the second clock signal is greater than the second upper threshold and assert a fourth signal if the frequency is less than the second lower threshold.
