Abstract
A method for implementing clock dividers includes providing, in response to detecting a voltage drop at a processor core, an input clock signal to a transmission gate multiplexer for selecting between one of two stretch-enable signals. In some embodiments, selecting between the one of two stretch-enable signals includes inputting a set of core clock enable signals into a clock divider circuit, and modifying the set of core clock enable signals to generate the stretch-enable signals. An output clock signal is generated based on the selected stretch-enable signal.
