ABSTRACT:
A timing system, for distributing clock signals in a synchronous processing system having plural processing sections, includes a central clock circuit and a plurality of section clock circuits, each section clock circuit being located in and associated with a different one of the processing sections. Each section clock circuit is arranged to respond to a system clock signal for stepping through a plurality of states including a state common to the plurality of section clock circuits. An arrangement, responsive to the system clock signal, produces and transmits to the plurality of section clock circuits a synchronization signal that routinely sets the plurality of section clock circuits to the common state. The timing system may further include an arrangement for controlling suspension of processing in the plural processing sections.
