Abstract
A system and method of deterministically transferring data from a first clock domain to a second clock domain includes writing data to a buffer, communicating a read status from the first clock domain to the second clock domain and reading data from the buffer into the second clock domain at a clock rate of the second domain. The buffer is accessible by both one or more devices in each of the first clock domain and the second clock domain and the read status is communicated from the first clock domain to the second clock domain when the second clock domain enables the read status to be communicated from the first clock domain to the second clock domain.
