Upscaled clock feeds memory to make parallel waves
First Claim
1. An integrated circuit comprising clock input means for receiving a primary clock signal, clock reconfiguring means fed by said clock input means for generating one or more secondary reconfigured clock signals, and utility circuitry fed by said clock reconfiguring means for constituting application utility functions under synchronization by said secondary clock signals,being characterized in that said clock input means comprise clock upscaling means for from said primary clock signal generating an intermediate clock signal with an upscaled frequency for thereby feeding said clock reconfiguring means, said clock reconfiguring means comprising late-programmable and low power memory means driven by said intermediate clock signal for generating said secondary reconfigured clock signals as wave-shape patterns read-out from a plurality of separately and sequentially drivable memory locations.

Abstract
An integrated circuit has a clock input for receiving a primary clock signal, clock reconfiguring device fed by the clock input for generating one or more secondary reconfigured clock signals, and utility circuitry fed by the clock reconfiguring device for constituting application utility functions under synchronization by the secondary clock signals. In particular, the clock input a clock upscaling device for from the primary clock signal generating an intermediate clock signal with an upscaled frequency for thereby feeding the clock reconfiguring device. Furthermore, the clock reconfiguring device a has late-programmable and low power memory driven by the intermediate clock signal for generating the secondary reconfigured clock signals. These are wave-shape patterns read-out from a plurality of separately and sequentially drivable memory locations.
