摘要： A mechanism provides accurate time-based counters for scaling operating frequencies of microprocessors. The mechanism makes use of a time-based counter circuit configuration in which a fixed frequency clock is derived from a PLL of the clock generation circuit of the microprocessor and is used to feed the external and internal timebase logic as well as a timebase accumulator counter. The timebase accumulator counter accumulates the tick events from the timebase logic between two core clocks. The accumulated value is transferred to the core clock domain on every clock edge of a scalable clock and the accumulator is then reset. Because the accumulated ticks are transferred to the core clock domain before the accumulator is reset, no ticks are ever lost using the circuitry of the illustrative embodiment.

摘要： A synchronization system capable of simultaneously resetting frequency divide-by counters (124A, 124B) of multiple processors (A, B) to zero regardless of the divide-by frequency signal (Mclk/n signal (168A, 168B)) and regardless of the magnitude of the clock mesh delays experienced by the Mclk/n signals in the processors. The synchronization system includes a mesh delay circuit (176A, 176B) for each processor that simulates in the undivided signal (Mclk/1 signal (136A, 136B)) the clock mesh delay experienced by the Mclk/n signal in that processor so as to provide an Lclk signal (172A, 172B). A phase detector detects the phase offset between the Mclk/n signal and the Sysclk signal (112) and sends an asynchronous offset signal (194A, 194B) to a counter re-setter (196A, 196B) that resets the divide-by counter to zero based on the offset signal.

摘要： The present invention provides for supporting an on chip-timer facility and, more particularly, to the generation of a constant time incremental increase while changing core mesh-clock frequency. A latch is coupled to the output of a first free-running clock. An inverter is coupled to the output of the first latch. At least one other secondary latch is coupled to the output of the first latch. An edge detector is coupled to the output of the secondary latch. An incrementer or decrementer is coupled to the output of the edge detector. A memory is coupled to the output of the incrementer or decrementer.

摘要： An apparatus, a method, and a computer program are provided for the generation of constant incremental increases while changing core clock frequencies. In computer systems, oftentimes frequency changes are useful. Maintaining the clocking ability of the computer system, though, can be a difficult task. To maintain the time keeping ability, time base logic is utilized with the free-running clock, which can be frequency limited. However, a plurality of communication channels in conjunction with an adder system is employed to effectively adjust for an ever increasing frequency to allow for a effective timekeeping regardless of the core frequency.
摘要翻译： 提供了一种装置，方法和计算机程序，用于在改变核心时钟频率的同时增加增量。 在计算机系统中，频繁变化通常是有用的。 维护计算机系统的时钟能力可能是一项艰巨的任务。 为了保持时间的保持能力，时基逻辑与自由运行的时钟一起使用，这可以被频率限制。 然而，结合加法器系统的多个通信信道被用于有效地调整不断增加的频率以允许有效的计时，而不管核心频率如何。
