Frequency-halving latch buffer circuit for deterministic field bus network data forwarding and application thereof

Abstract

The present invention provides a frequency-halving latch circuit for deterministic field bus network data forwarding and application thereof. The frequency-halving latch circuit includes a data buffer equipped with two buffer units; a frequency-halving enable latch signal generation module for generating a first frequency-halving latch signal and a second frequency-halving latch signal with opposite levels, and selecting data buffer units of the data buffer based on the first frequency-halving latch signal, the second frequency-halving latch signal and a receiving enable signal; and a shift register including a first trigger and a second trigger which are initialized to opposite output states, the first trigger and the second trigger is connected to realize a shift operation, and data stored in the data buffer units is finally selected and read based on a low order in the shift register composed of the two triggers and a read enable signal. The frequency-halving latch circuit can be applied to a scenario of deterministic field bus network data forwarding as a same-frequency out-of-phase data cross-clock domain circuit, with high resource utilization rate and stability.
