Abstract
This invention provides a synchronous, power down oscillating device that provides only uniform pulses having no glitches at its output. The circuit is able to provide a synchronous output for two low power stand-by modes of a battery powered device. The circuit includes an oscillator that sends an oscillator signal to a synchronizing chain of D flip-flops. Input to the flip-flops is provided through an OR gate. The output of the flip-flops is logically ORed with the oscillator signal. The resultant output from the circuit is always a synchronized signal.
