ABSTRACT:
A clock generating circuit for use in a signal processing circuit to enable it to be synchronized with other circuits in response to a reset signal uses a multi-state circuit which is cyclically stepped through its states by a clock drive signal and a decoder responsive to the state of the multi-state circuit to produce the required clock pulses. The reset signal is used to stop the multi-state circuit at a particular state and hold it there for a period of time enabling other similar clock pulse generating circuits to reach the same state and be held there. At the end of the period of time the multi-state circuits resume their cyclic stepping with all the circuits in synchronism.
