Clock device for supporting multiplicity of memory module types

摘要

A clock circuit for supporting a plurality of memory module types is provided. The clock circuit is connected to a first type memory module slot, and a second type memory module slot. The clock circuit includes a clock generator for producing a clock signal and a clock buffer having doubly defined clock pins for outputting the first type memory clock signal or the second type memory clock signal. The clock buffer receives the clock signal and outputs a first type memory clock signal to the first type memory clock pin. The doubly defined clock pin is also capable of outputting a second type memory clock signal to the second type memory clock pin. This invention is capable of using just a single clock buffer to drive a plurality of different memory module types.
