Abstract
A selector is provided so that any one of a plurality of asynchronous absorption paths can be selected when it is assumed that operating frequencies of preceding and succeeding clock domains vary depending on the application. By an operation of a selector control circuit based on, for example, information about a ratio of preceding and succeeding clock frequencies that is set in a frequency-ratio register, an asynchronous absorption path that is optimal to a frequency-dependent process required for asynchronous absorption, such as pulse expansion or the like, is selected.
