Abstract
A programmable clock control circuit includes a base block configured to control operation of the programmable clock control circuit and a chop block configured to control the width of an output clock signal of the programmable clock control circuit. The circuit also includes a pulse width variation block providing a pulse width variation output to the base block, the base block output being variable to provide at least three different output pulse widths. The circuit also includes a launch clock delay block coupled to delay the output of the base block and a scan clock delay block to delay the output pulse and a selector that causes either the scan clock delay block or the launch clock delay block to be active based on a value of a scan gate signal.
