An apparatus for clock generation is presented. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a phase interpolator that generates an output with a phase value within reference phases associated with two input clocks. Logic units are coupled to determine a number of phase settings for the phase interpolator. A divider is coupled to the phase interpolator to generate an output clock based on a modifiable divider setting.
