Abstract
A first device in a system produces a first clock signal, while a second device in the system produces a second clock signal. A clock arbitration component of the system determines which of the clock signals to send to a third device in the system, which generates data based on the first clock. This data, along with data from the first device, is used to generate synchronized data, that is synchronized based on the first clock, which is then sent to the second device for performance of a function. At times when the first device is not active and only the second clock signal is received, the second clock signal is sent to the third device, which generates data based on the second clock that is used to generate synchronized data to be sent to the second device.
