ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT, SAFETY CRITICAL SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A RESET SIGNAL

摘要

An electronic circuit comprises a reset input for receiving an input reset signal, a clock input for receiving a clock signal, and a reset output for providing an output reset signal. And it comprises a synchronous reset signal path comprising a synchronization unit, arranged to receive the input reset signal and provide the input reset signal synchronized with the clock signal to the reset output when the clock signal is available, and an asynchronous reset signal path arranged to provide the input reset signal to the reset output when a current clock availability information in a clock monitoring signal indicates that the clock signal is not available.
