Abstract
A clock-gating synchronization circuit is provided. The clock-gating synchronization circuit includes a synchronization circuit and clock-gating circuit. The synchronization circuit is configured to perform a synchronization operation to convert a first control signal in a first clock domain into a second control signal in a second clock domain, transmit the second control signal to an electronic circuit, and determine whether the first control signal and the second control signal are the same to generate a first signal. The clock-gating circuit is configured to perform clock gating on the clock signal from a clock generator in the second clock domain according to the first signal to generate a gated clock signal, and transmit the gated clock signal to the electronic circuit and the synchronization circuit, wherein the synchronization operation performed by the synchronization circuit is controlled by the gated clock signal.
