Abstract

See full text

Clock signal generation circuitry. A frequency multiplier is coupled to receive a clock signal and to generate a frequency-multiplied clock signal. A switching circuit is coupled to receive at least two reference clock signals. The switching circuit provides one of the reference clock signals in response to a reference select signal. A phase locked loop (PLL) is coupled to receive the frequency-multiplied clock signal and the selected reference clock signal. The PLL generates an output clock signal.
