Provided is a method for transferring data from one clock domain within a synchronizer to another domain within the synchronizer. The method includes determining system clock parameters within the synchronizer and analyzing a first domain clock signal based upon the system clock parameters. Next, a second domain clock signal is analyzed based upon the first domain clock signal and the system clock parameters. A determination is made as to when to transfer data from a first clock domain to a second clock domain in accordance with the analysis of the first and second domain clock signals, and an enable signal is provided to affect the data transfer from the first domain to the second clock domain.

A modular integrated circuit includes a hub module that is coupled to a plurality of spoke modules via a plurality of hub interfaces. The plurality of hub interfaces provide a plurality of signal interfaces between the hub module and each of the plurality of spoke modules, wherein each of the plurality of signal interfaces is isolated from each of the other signal interfaces of the plurality of signals interface, and wherein each of the plurality of signal interfaces operates in accordance with a common signaling format.
