Clocking system including a clock controller that uses buffer feedback to vary a clock frequency

摘要

A low power reconfigurable processor core includes one or more processing units, each unit having a clock input that controls the performance of the unit; one or more clock controllers having clock outputs coupled to the clock inputs of the processing units, the controller operating varying the clock frequency of each processing unit to optimize speed and processing power for a task; and a high-density memory array core coupled to the processing units.
