Abstract

An even bus clock circuit generates logic pulses in response to substantially coincident rising edges of a processor clock and a bus clock over a given range of processor clock to bus clock ratios that includes whole integers and half integers. The even bus clock circuit includes a delay element for receiving the bus clock and generating a delayed bus clock, a first flip-flop for receiving the processor clock at a data input and receiving the delayed bus clock at a clock input, and a second flip-flop for receiving a data output of the first flip-flop at a data input, receiving the processor clock at a clock input and generating a data output that is coupled to an asynchronous reset input of the first flip-flop. The logic pulses are generated at the data output of the first flip-flop and have a pulse width of substantially the same duration as a single cycle of the processor clock.
