Abstract

A clock generator circuit includes a counter which counts edges of a received clock signal and a comparator which compares divide ratio control data with a count generated by the counter and generates an active state of a control signal in response. An output flip-flop toggles in response to the control signal and a selected edge of the received dock signal to toggle a state of an output clock signal.
