Abstract
In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a system on a chip (SoC) including a first clock divider configured to: receive an oscillator signal at a first frequency; produce, based on the oscillator signal: a first clock signal at the first frequency; and a second clock signal at a second frequency, the second frequency being a division of the first frequency. The first clock divider can selectively provide the first clock signal or the second clock signal as a first output clock signal based on a scaling configuration signal. The first clock divider can produce a frequency indication signal indicating, in combination with the first output clock signal, a start of a new clock period of the second clock signal. The SoC can include a second clock divider configured to provide a second clock output signal based on the first output clock signal and the frequency indication signal.
