Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
Example one
Fig. 1a is a schematic structural diagram of a clock frequency division system in an embodiment of the present invention, and the technical solution of this embodiment is suitable for a situation where a complex SOC clock network is divided into functional modules.
The clock is a heartbeat and a pulse for a digital system, and the event triggers of the timing circuit are mostly concentrated on the clock edge. The design of the clock network realizes all the processes running through the chip design, and it is very critical to ensure the correct and efficient operation of the SOC clock network. For ease of understanding, the clock structure for the SOC in the prior art will be described first, and the clock structure commonly used in the prior art includes using discrete frequency-dividing circuit blocks and using a single clock-dividing circuit block.
The clock structure using the dispersed frequency division circuit modules is as shown in fig. 1b, the phase-locked loop directly sends the output clock to each clock module, and each clock module generates the functional clock required by the system.
The clock structure using a single clock frequency division circuit module is shown in fig. 1c, and a high-frequency clock generated by a phase-locked loop generates a functional clock required by a system through a clock frequency division circuit, and this mode has the same limitation as the clock structure of the dispersed frequency division circuit module when a complex system or too many submodules are encountered, and increases difficulty in subsequent related processes such as clock constraint, clock test, clock tree synthesis and the like due to lack of uniform synchronization relation definition of each functional clock.
A clock division system according to an embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to fig. 1 a:
the clock frequency division system comprises an absolute global clock generation module 1, a prescaler module 2 and at least one subsystem 3, wherein each subsystem 3 comprises a clock frequency division module 31; the absolute global clock generation module 1 is connected with the prescaler module 2, and the prescaler module 2 is respectively connected with the clock frequency dividing module 31 in each subsystem 3.
In the present embodiment, the clock frequency dividing system includes an absolute global clock generating module 1, a pre-frequency dividing module 2(pre _ clk _ div), and at least one subsystem 3 (for example, clk _ ssysA, clk _ ssysB, and clk _ ssysC shown in fig. 1 a), and each subsystem 3 includes a clock frequency dividing module 31. The specific connection relationship includes that the absolute global clock generation module 1 is connected with the prescaler module 2, and the prescaler module 2 is connected with the clock frequency dividing module 31 included in each subsystem 3. The absolute global clock generation module 1 can uniformly integrate an externally input reference clock signal to generate a high-frequency clock, so that a high-frequency device can normally work.
And the absolute global clock generating module 1 is used for generating an absolute global clock and sending the absolute global clock to the prescaler module 2.
In this embodiment, an external reference clock is input to an absolute global clock generation module 1 inside the system through a functional pin, the absolute global clock generation module 1 generates an absolute global clock required by the system according to the external reference clock, and sends the absolute global clock generated by the absolute global clock generation module 1 to a prescaler module 2.
Alternatively, the absolute global clock generation block 1 may be a Phase Locked Loop (PLL).
The prescaler module 2 is configured to generate relative global clocks corresponding to the subsystems 3, respectively, according to the absolute global clock, and issue the relative global clocks to the clock frequency divider module 31 in the matched subsystem 3;
in this embodiment, in order to avoid the problem of large power consumption caused by long-distance clock transmission, a presorting module 2 is introduced into the clock frequency dividing system, and after receiving the absolute global clock sent by the absolute global clock generating module 1, the presorting module 2 divides the frequency of the absolute global clock according to the clock frequency required by each subsystem 3, generates the relative global clocks corresponding to each subsystem 3, and sends each relative global clock to the clock frequency dividing module 31 in the matched subsystem 3. Wherein each clock divider module 31 may receive at least one relative global clock according to actual requirements.
Optionally, at least one relative global clock output by the prescaler module 2 is an asynchronous clock.
In order to ensure that the constraint of the clock division system in this embodiment is correct and simple, and some basic rules related to the clock constraint are observed during the structural design of the division system, in this alternative embodiment, a constraint rule is provided, where at least one of the relative global clocks output by the prescaler module 2 is an asynchronous clock, and each asynchronous clock is placed in a different clock group. Illustratively, the clocks generated by the prescaler module 2 are named as gmc _125M, dma _125M, SD0_96M, and SD1_96M, respectively, and are asynchronous.
Based on the above rules, the clock input ports of the subsystems 3 connected to the prescaler module 2 cannot have 2 relative global clocks that are synchronous at the same time, and if the clocks are 2 synchronous clocks, the clocks need to be combined to ensure that the clocks input to one subsystem 3 are asynchronous.

The above-mentioned synchronous clock generated by the clock divider module 31 is used to be supplied to the next stage of electronic modules connected to the subsystem 3 in order to provide the electronic modules with a clock matching their operating frequency.

In this alternative embodiment, a basic rule related to clock constraints is provided, and each synchronous clock generated by the clock frequency dividing module 31 in each subsystem 3 and each relative global clock generated by the pre-frequency dividing module 2 are asynchronous clocks. Illustratively, the clock × gmc _125M generated by the prescaler module 2 is asynchronous with the clock × gmc _125M generated by the clock divider module 31 inside the subsystem 3.
Optionally, the clock in the clock frequency division system goes from the prescaler module 2 to the clock frequency division module 31 included in each subsystem 3, and the clock reverse feedback is not supported.
In this alternative embodiment, another basic rule related to clock constraint is provided, which specifies that the clock in the clock division system runs from the prescaler module 2 to the clock divider module 31 included in each subsystem 3, and does not support clock back-haul. If a synchronous path exists between the bottom layer electronic modules, the clock needs to be accessed from the absolute global clock generation module 1, and the clock generated by the subsystem 3 does not need to be returned.
Optionally, at least one output of the presorting module 2 has the same function as the input of the clock frequency dividing module 31 inside each subsystem 3;
when each subsystem 3 is used alone, the input of the clock division module 31 inside each subsystem 3 is defined as a creation clock;
when each subsystem 3 is in the clock frequency division system, the input of the clock frequency division module 31 in each subsystem 3 is omitted, and at least one output of the prescaler module 2 is defined as a created sub-clock;
creating a sub-clock is a stop point of the previous-stage logic of the system and is also used as a root node of the next-stage logic of the system.
Optionally, at least one output of the absolute global clock generation module 1 has the same function as at least one input of the prescaler module 2;

when the prescaler module 2 is in the clock frequency division system, at least one input of the prescaler module 2 is omitted, and at least one output of the absolute global clock generation module 1 is defined as a creation sub-clock;
creating a sub-clock is a stop point of the previous-stage logic of the system and is also used as a root node of the next-stage logic of the system.
In the above two alternative embodiments, there are provided rules for applying relevant Clock constraints and Clock tree synthesis based on the Clock structure shown in fig. 1d, specifically, 3-1-related clocks (representing the Clock named at the beginning of fig. 1d as 3-1, and the same applies to the following description of Clock names including the symbol), that is, the clocks generated by the Clock dividing module 31 included in each subsystem 3 are defined as creating a sub-Clock (Create _ Generate _ Clock) and do not need to be synchronized, and are root nodes (root points) of Clock tree synthesis for lower-level logic (for example, a subsystem next to a current subsystem) and stop points (stop pin points) for previous-level logic (for example, a current subsystem).

In addition, the clocks output by each time are asynchronous, for example, the clocks output by 1-1-, 2-1-, and 3-1-are asynchronous clocks.

Step 230, the clock frequency division module generates at least one synchronous clock according to the relative global clock obtained from the presorting module;
wherein the synchronous clock is used for providing to the electronic module of the current stage or the next stage of the subsystem.
