Abstract
Spread spectrum clocking circuitry may be configured to produce a spread spectrum clock signal that coordinates the actions of functional circuitry. Spread spectrum clocking circuitry may be configured to include delay circuitry configured to generate a random delay signal based on a random input value and generate the spread spectrum clock signal based on the random delay signal. By introducing true randomness into the delay signal, spread spectrum clocking signal may be able to generate a truly random, as opposed to a merely pseudo random, clock signal.
