ABSTRACT:
A programmable logic device (PLD), such as a field programmable gate array (FPGA), has a programmable clock manager (PCM) that converts an input clock into at least two different output clocks having different clock rates. The different output clocks can be used to control different processes either within or outside the FPGA. For example, one output clock can be used to control the FPGA's input/output registers, while a second, faster output clock can be used to control the FPGA's internal registers.
