An electronic device includes a control logic portion suitable for generating a hold control signal based on a count enable signal, and a counting portion suitable for performing a counting operation while a latch operation stops during a counting section and performing the latch operation while the counting operation stops during a holding section based on the hold control signal and a counting clock signal.

ADJUSTED-FREQUENCY SYNCHRONIZER FOR CLOCK DOMAIN CROSSING

A synchronizer with flip-flops has a reduced number of flip-flops coupled in series, receiving as an input data of a first clock domain and supplying as an output data in the second clock domain. The second clock signal is at a variable frequency adjusted to a target frequency, by a division factor. The flip-flops are timed by a clock signal subsampling the second clock signal by a factor k1. The subsampled clock signal is generated by a frequency divider propagating a pulse of the signal every k1 clock pulses, while keeping the edges aligned.
