Abstract
A data processing system comprises a processor operating according to a first clock signal and a memory operating according to a second clock signal. The data processing system causes the processor to read data from the memory at least in part in response to a signal from first synchronizing circuitry and a signal from second synchronizing circuitry. The first synchronizing circuitry comprises a first storage element that samples a signal synchronized to the second clock signal in combination with a second storage element that samples an output of the first storage element. The first and second storage elements are triggered by inverse transitions in the first clock signal. The second synchronizing circuitry comprises third and fourth storage elements configured in a similar manner, except that they sample a signal synchronized to the first clock signal and are triggered by inverse transitions in the second clock signal.
