发明名称 Pseudo-synchronous time division multiplexing
摘要 Methods and apparatuses to multiplex logic data pseudo synchronously are described. A representation of a multiplexer logic is generated to transmit data items asynchronously relative to a design clock. The data items may be transmitted under control of a transmission clock from a first integrated circuit to a second integrated circuit. A representation of a counter logic may be generated to couple with the multiplexer logic for transmitting the data asynchronously. Additionally, a representation of reset logic may be generated for a configuration to repeatedly reset the counter logic. Synchronization signals may be generated for a design clock cycle of a design clock driving the data items. The synchronization signals may be transmitted via the transmission clock asynchronous with the design clock. The data items may be transmitted via a number of transmission slots determined based on the clock cycles of the transmission clock and the design clock The total time for the transmission slots for transmitting the logic data may be less than the clock cycle of the design clock. One or more transmission slots within the clock cycle of the design clock may be used to transmit the synchronization data to indicate a new cycle to transmit the data items according to the design clock.
